It was occupied intermittently from about 79 to 184 AD and was the largest of the "outpost" forts after the construction of Hadrian's Wall in the 120s AD. It was located 60 miles north of the wall on the extension of Dere Street the main Roman route to the north, initially in seemingly "hostile" territory. Trimontium was about three times larger than any fort on Hadrian's Wall and by 180 became the most northerly settlement of the whole Roman Empire.
Trimontium is also considered of international importance as the site of one of the largest caches of Roman military objects in Britain, found in 117 pits.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:a45lchb5j3y4lqecjho6qrv2/bafkreidw5cq5ijzknwxpwyvdu2qnwg57ncftzawqqvr6coqo662crj6ity@jpeg)

When does an act of vandalism become a work of art? This one was carved into an oak pew in Winchester Cathedral in 1828. Iβll bet the culprit, if caught, was dealt with pretty harshly. I think itβs rather beautiful.
