Newcastle (Pons Aelius) Bridge, Vallum and Fort (info needed
#73
OK. My official position is that I'm now 100% lost, I am no genius at directions, I have been told the fort is located on a promontory from which it could only open one gate and appears rather isolated, not to mention this promontory and streams make it virtually impossible for the stanegate to have passed there although it would make more sense if it had. Confusedhock:

And to add injury to insult there is new evidence the fort did not connect to the wall, there is talk of some curtail wall I am hopelessly at a loss at, etc etc etc!!!! :roll:

Can anybody draw me any of this? My life would be a lot simpler Cry
