Hello Gaius,
Thanks for the pointer to www.roman-britain.org.
I've already parsed that site's html for forts etc and have a database. Problem is that the coords are limited to 1km accuracy and I don't know if the data is definitive, i.e. based on scholarly, peer-reviewed work. It is a cracking site though: the work that has gone into it is immense.
Gosh! if a man with 12414 posts writes this is "as good as anything I have seen" then I suppose I should not expect anyone else to know of other databases.
Regards, Steve Kaye
