Newcastle (Pons Aelius) Bridge, Vallum and Fort (info needed
#71
I think Yuri that the info given by Bishop reference the north wall of the fort being found in 1986 needs to be read, however his compass directions of the wall running WSW to ENE appear to point to the wall leaving the fort in it's easterly direction to Wallsend (Segedunum) For the wall going west from the fort would be on the reciprocal of this heading....I do think however for Bishop to state that the Wall was built before the fort, when the wall in this area has never been found appears to be a bit presumptive.
