Britain\'s Lost Megafortress

[Robert Vermaat]

A recent Timewatch investigation by the BBC speculated that, from the size and scale of the fort, had the Roman Empire not begun to collapse, Deva would have become the Roman capital of Britain and a launch post for invasions on Ireland. In fact, recent discoveries of a fort in Ireland suggest that at least one foray was made.

Sounds interesting. Did not knew about any Roman forrays into Ireland. Who knows more?

Stefan,
Who are you quoting here? Because that claim sounds a bit ridiculous in my opinion! All that I can find about is that some think Agricola would have taken up residence in Deva, which is not quite the same period as the time when ´the Empire began to crumble´...
