#Archaeology lovers: below you can see the panel recently placed at the site of the ancient #Roman Coria, a stone's throw from #HadriansWall, featuring my reconstruction of the main road bustling with people with each building matching the remains found by archaeological surveys!

From Pons Aelius to Eboracum for the @archaeologyuk Archaeology Awards! We received a Commendation, but lost ... to Carlisle! So a great victory for #HadriansWall, and congrats to Uncovering Roman Carlisle!

An information panel highlighting what was uncovered by WallCAP volunteers during our excavations is now up in the playing field north of the Corbridge Roman town site!

As always, great to work with Sign and Design, Hexham. Got our new panel up in the playing field opposite Corbridge site @VisitCorbridge @EnglishHeritage. Thanks for the reconstruction drawing @Wall_CAP !
