No trace of this Roman camp can be seen on the ground (RCAHMS 1978). Situated in a good position on a shoulder of rising ground to the N of the Antonine Wall and approximately 470m NE of Balmuildy fort (NS57SE 12), it was discovered from the air in 1951. It measures 262m from NE to SW by 186 m transversely, and the positions of the gates, all of which are visible on air photographs, indicate that it faced SW.

Visible on CUCAP air photographs GN 73-81, WC 13, ADY 96 and on RCAHMS APs LA 2027-30.
