Galava Gate Roman Fort, Ambleside

It has been a while since our blog was updated but we have not been idle.  Our builders have been working with volunteers on the Roman fort at Galava Gate, Ambleside.  Works include de-turfing, cleaning and consolidation of existing walls.  Phill, Adam, John and Bryan have worked with different volunteers over the past 15 days helping them with the consolidation work on the walls of the fort that were last excavated in 1913.  The work has been carried out in conjunction with archaeologist Jamie Lund. The event is supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund and forms part of the Windermere Reflections programme.
