The E ditch of this 37-acre (15 ha) camp was examined immediately south of the A49 road in advance of road-widening, and was found to be c.2m wide, flat-bottomed and 0.30m deep below ploughsoil 0.4m thick. At some period the ditch had been recut to a width of 0.8m and a depth of 0.30m. No trace of the SE gateway was found; this probably lies a little further north beneath the A49.

A trench at the SE corner of a rectangular enclosure lying 240-280m east of the camp revealed a ditch 1.60m wide and 0.15m deep.

S S Frere 1988.

Further excavation by CEU, in advance of A94 widening.
