Horn Castle: Watching Brief on Suspected Roman Wall, December 2022
Author(s): Tony Wilmott
In December 2022 a stone wall was noticed in the section of a water pipe trench immediately south of the known line of the south wall of the Roman defences of Horncastle. It was suggested that this wall was Roman, and possibly the side of a bastion on the Roman wall. The wall was recorded. It proved to be a post-medieval structure constructed using Roman spolia (repurposed building material).
