Pleiades
Aerial photographs published in 2000 led to the conclusion that the site preserves the remains of two superimposed forts. The larger of the two measures approximately 140 by 100 meters. The earlier fort, perhaps corresponding to the account of Tacitus, may date ca. 47 CE while the later fort is post-Boudiccan in date.
