Corbridge Romans

The sun shone gloriously today and we explored a new, to us, Roman site, the supply town of Corbridge.  No costume for Sam here but there were eight AWOL Roman soldiers to track down and the reward of a sticker and a certificate.  There was a good museum and I enjoyed seeing these spinning and sewing items found at the site.

  1. I last visited here on a University field trip in the late 1970s when studying Roman Britain! Lovely to see the old spinning tools.

  2. It is nice to be reminded that clothes have not always come from shops in the Highstreet!

  4. We live near Corbridge, and this was a favourite place to visit when our boys were young. Hope you found the AWOL Romans :)
