Scope and Content Fort and temporary camps at Crawford, South Lanarkshire This Roman fort is at Crawford. It was suspected that there was a fort in this area as early as the 18th century, but it was not discovered until 1938, through aerial photography. The fort had several phases of occupation. The temporary camps are nearby. This is an aerial photograph of the site. The fort can be seen as a series of crop-marks at the top of the image, behind the buildings. In the foreground can be seen one of the temporary Roman camps. The fort was possibly built c. AD 80, during Agricola's early campaigns, and abandoned c. AD 86. It was re-occupied c. AD 140, and was finally abandoned for good c. AD 170, with either a second short break in occupation or a reorganisation in between. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
