The roundhouse seen from the entrance to the farmstead enclose.
The roundhouse itself. It appears that the site is no longer receiving any upkeep, and the doorway has been somewhat vandalised. So visit soon, before the thatch rots away. The roundhouse within the enclosure with a wall and palisade. The banks to the left show a different style of defensive barrier, typical of Iron Age fortifications.
Brigantium has a reconstruction of a Romano-British roundhouse, based on remains that were found there. The site lies just off the A68 Dere Street, about 1/4 mile north of Rochester village. |
