NS 8623 7977 In August 2014 local children excavated a trench on the line of the Roman road issuing from the S gate of the fortlet at Watling Lodge on land adjacent to Tamfourhill Community Centre. Plough marks on the natural clay showed that any Roman features would have been removed by

agricultural activity. At the W end of the trench machine scoops were associated with the creation of the play park in the 1970s.
