The fort is the biggest and most complete such Roman building in England but despite this, the overall site is not large and generally full of Roman buildings. We are therefore confined to a limited LHE / craft display plus a small arena which is suitable for one to one, and small scale combat displays only. All are welcome by prior arrangement with Northumbria on a first come first served basis up to a maximum of 25 re-enactors. Some reimbursement for expenses will be available depending on actual numbers attending. Anyone requiring further details should email me on steven.lines@virgin.net. |
