NT00SE 45 centred 08470 02640

See also NT00SE 20.

For Medieval pottery and possible bank excavated within the area of the camp (at NT 083 026), see NT00SE 140.

The relationship of two Roman sites recorded on aerial photographs was investigated. One (NT00SE 44) was a small enclosure c. 30m square, probably a Roman fortlet; the other, a marching-camp of c. 11ha (27 acres); situated on the left bank of the Evan Water, immediately to the W of the Roman road RR 7f. Trial excavation showed that the presumed fortlet was earlier, its ditch having been cut away by the NE angle of the camp. It was not possible to form an estimate of the interval separating the periods of use of the two structures.
