Roman Britannia

Derventio Brigantum

Derventio Brigantum is now known as Malton.

The site was surveyed in the 1930's and many artifacts found. the main findings were the defences and interior buildings of the north-east corner of the fort.

Later excavations were carried out in 1949 and 1952 by the Ministry of Works.

During excavations in 1970 a complex building sequence was revealed, with evidence of work during the Trajanic, Severan, Constantian and Theodosian periods.

The original earthworks are still visible in the town.
