Roman Birmingham 4: Excavations at Metchley Roman Fort 2004-2005 (Bar Bs)

A report on excavations which provide evidence for the entire military sequence at the Roman fort of Metchley. A wide range of features and feature types were sampled, including defensive ditches and gatehouse structures, timber-framed buildings and industrial features. The results add to our understanding of the site layout, and its planning as well as the specialised functions of the military complex and aspects of its Post Roman use and occupation.
