Field Walking

Date 2005

Category Recording

Type Field Walking

The fieldwalking produced a number of Roman objects, notably 14 coins. Many of these were as might be expected of a fort which is assumed to have been occupied in the Flavian period alone, notably six of Vespasian (three dating to AD 71) and two of Domitian, along with earlier coins of Augustus and Mark Anthony. There were, however, two coins of Hadrian and one of Trajan (which might hint at Antonine activity), along with two 3rd-century radiate copies.
