@pete_savin @BBC_Cumbria Beautiful stonework.

Building outlines inside Roman fortlet clearly visible atm thanks to strimming by #UnitedUtilities. Roman road from Delph to Castleshaw also showing up well this time of year. Stocktake of our digging equipment this afternoon - only a few months & we’ll be back excavating…

[Nick Brook @NicholasBrook1]

@OfForts Make sure there's plenty of finds trays.

Just look at this fantastic image taken from a magic lantern slide of a summer’s outing to Castleshaw in 1908! As you can see we’ve been able to pinpoint exactly where in the fortlet it was taken & head over to our Facebook page for more info. Hope they had some good weather!

Can't wait to get digging again.
