NS 6775 7493 A magnetic survey of 2.8ha to the E and W of the fort in May 2006 continued previous work at the site. Anomalies detected to the E of the fort were unlikely to be Roman in origin, but those abutting the NE corner were more encouraging. On the W side further detail was obtained on the area enclosed by the fort's ramparts and a possible second, more westerly, line of defences. Conductivity was used on an experimental basis.
