Exposed the Windridge Fort aerials to the Roman Society .... followed up with a poll which came out in favour of the crop marks representing a significant Roman Fort. Thankfully the real expert was there and voted pro-Fort....

One of the observations regarding the putative fort at Windridge is that the corner are not rounded, therefore not the classic Roman playing card. A similar fort corner was found at the Roman Fort at Valkenburg (2021).

More hints that Windridge is a likely Fort (if the outline wasn't enough) 1990 and Rosalind Niblett and Co. were assuming there was a Fort at Windridge.. Roman Towns: The Wheeler Inheritance ed S. Greep Council for British Archaeology Research Report 93 (1993)

If the Stonea "massacre" was part of Paulinus's campaign of vengeance and Grandford a fort to spearhead that action, then it may reinforce theories that the final battle was fought on Watling St up the Nene Valley

Labour is basically accepting at this point that they don't want better university access, higher growth, more R&D or stronger regional policy. Drifting towards political disaster.

Info from Westminster Council suggests the unit blocking Boudicca and the public realm brings in about £1k a month as a stall pitch. So the question is the erosion of the statue setting and mess of a street scene really worth that much?
