The fort reopens during select dates over the Summer Holiday!

Join us for the chance to play Roman ball games, board games and explore this unique, historic site as you complete a fun discovery trail.

Encounter our costumed Roman Soldiers, who will share fascinating facts about the fort, and challenge your children (and their accompanying adults) to some inquisitive thinking about what they can discover as they uncover the history and hidden secrets of this 2000-year-old fortress.

Opening Times

The fort will be open during select dates over the summer holiday. Full dates and 2 hour time slots can be found on the booking page.

What has changed?

• You will need to book your visit in advance, via Eventbrite.

• You will be able to choose a timed slot, giving you access to the site for 2 hours.

• We are following the 2-meter social distancing Government guidelines, meaning our site is working at a reduced visitor capacity. As a result, we will not accept visitors onsite if they have not booked in advance.

• Our shop will be open for purchasing souvenirs; however, we are operating on a cash-lite system, and where possible we will require payment via contactless methods.

• The public toilets will be operating on a one-in, one-out system. Parents may enter the toilet facilities with their children, but please follow the guidelines outlined on signage around the facilities to keep a safe distance from other households, and remain outside the toilet block until it is available for you to enter.

• In line with the latest Government guidelines the wearing of masks in our indoor spaces is mandatory for all those aged 11 and over. Failure to follow these guidelines will result in entry to our Granary building being refused.
