Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Earlier historical accounts of Raedykes are considered and accompanying illustrations reproduced including the work of Roy. These accounts demonstrate extraordinary differences between the various estimates that were formed regarding the superficial area of Raedykes. Small-scale excavation revealed that the engineers who constructed the camp had made use of two well-marked types of ditch and rampart,\r\nthe choice of type for each particular section being obviously determined by the nature of the ground that happened to lie immediately in front. The outline of the camp as a whole is described as quadrilateral and the writer attempts to explain the differences in area estimates. Antiquarian accounts of Glenmailen are also considered and a report on exploration of the ditch and rampart is presented along with a plan of the camp which is firmly identified as Roman. | |||
