Chew Green used to be a Roman station, beyond Hadrian's Wall. The encampment here is right next to Dere Street (a Roman road). It was a five-phase complex of Roman military camps, including a semi-permanent Roman fort, and two fortlets, which were permanently occupied. Most of it is now simply indentations in the grass.
