Archaeologists say the finds suggest a deliberately planned community was thriving and trading there.

Archaeologists have started excavating a Roman fort for the final time, meaning some ancient artefacts may never see the light of day.

This will be the last season of excavations at the site, looking into remains of houses, communal spaces, workplaces, a bath complex and a potential extension of the cemetery area. "But as far as the big questions that we were hoping to address, I think working as a team between the institutions, we have done pretty well."

The greatest concentration of finds, ranging from household items to slingshot bullets, was unearthed to the north of the wall last year.
