Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
SP 344752. The fort is well sited for military purposes and lies on gravel overlooking an area of heavy soils. Occupation dates suggested by pottery and coins are c 60-79, and as this is too late for the central section of the Fosse Way frontier, the site was either a rearward works depot/stores or (perhaps more likely) a result of the Boudiccan rebellion. Timber buildings of the first phase were cut c 64 by the later defensive system, whose sinuous eastern rampart may be due to the terrain. Other unusual features are the slight inturn of the E gateway and non-standard internal planning. At the end of occupation in c 79 the fort was dismantled and levelled. A little post-Hadrianic occupation is evidenced. Many metal objects have been recovered including military bronzes. |
