Is There A Roman Mausoleum Buried In Binchester? | Time Team | Odyssey

Time Team come to Binchester with a particular interest in uncovering a vicus, a civilian settlement supporting the Roman fort of Vinovia. Though part of the plot is a restricted scheduled monument, the vicus should be large enough for some of it to lie outside the scheduled area. John's spectacular geophysics indicates not only a possible Roman temple or mausoleum, but also a second, earlier fort. Together with cremation burials, it all forces the team to rethink their priorities.
