Hi Nick,
The ND is regarded to be reliable enough up to c. 394 AD.
Additions that seem to have been made may be dated to c. 420 AD, but generally I think it's safe to say that 394 is the best date where British units are concerned.
What (and indeed, if any) changes were made after 367 we don't know, since it is not possible for us to tell when changes from earlier known units actually took place.
