Abstract:		 A general account of the archaeology of the site, summarising previous findings and incorporating the results of excavations conducted since 1983 at South Shields, Tyne & Wear. Iron Age settlement preceded early timber and stone phases of a standard fort. In the third century AD the fort was enlarged and adapted into a fortified granary and, contrary to previous belief, it is shown that the fort performed this role until c AD 300, when it was destroyed by fire. There is evidence from the subsequent rebuilding that the fort reverted to an operational base, garrisoned by a high-status maritime unit. Roman occupation continued into the reign of Theodosius, but two bodies buried within the commanding officer's house are thought to be those of individuals executed in the early-fifth century.
