Tyne and Wear HER(198): Hadrian's Wall, Wallsend Fort (Segedunum)

  • Description

    "Visible in the 18th century, the fort area had become a pit village in the early 19 th century, was built over again at the end of the 19 th century, and was only finally cleared in the 1970s and 1980s. Chance discoveries were made of a well (in 1895) and the East gate (in 1912), and the fort outline was defined in 1929. Total excavation of the surviving internal area (except under Buddle Street) took place between 1975 and 1984...."
