Excavations carried out in 1965 by J K St Joseph at NT 348 721 in a field N of the playing field attached to Lewisvale Public Park revealed a ditch 6-10' wide and 275' long, forming the N side, and 140' of the E side of an apparently rectangular enclosure. A 12' wide causeway lay centrally in the N side. A second ditch, 5' wide, identified as the water-pipe channel supplying the Antonine bath-house (NT37SW 13), now largely robbed of its original stone lining, ran obliquely across the enclosure for 400'. The enclosure is distinct from the triple ditch NT37SW 21.
