As stated, there are no surface remains of either the fort or W annexe, the former lying mainly within an undulating arable field and the annexe area being entirely built over. Above AP's and 1979 RCAHMS AP's, as yet uncatalogued, show cropmarks of the fort, excavated enclosure (centred at NS 9206 7939) and amorphous linear marks of a possibly extensive civilian settlement in area NS 920 794.

Also visible is a probable eastern annexe to the fort, c.1/2 hectare in area, and bounded on the N side by the sharp turn of the Antonine Wall. Revised at 1:1250.

Annexe (eastern) surveyed at 1:1250.
