Whitley Castle Roman Fort IC240_001: A Reconstructed Aerial View of Epiacum in the 2nd Century AD This reconstruction drawing, skillfully crafted by Judith Dobie for Historic England, offers a breathtaking perspective of Whitley Castle Roman Fort, also known as Epiacum, during the 2nd century AD. The image is presented as an aerial view from the south-west, providing an intriguing glimpse into the past. At the heart of the illustration lies the impressive Roman fort, its rectangular outline defined by the double ramparts and the inner and outer ditches. The fort's strategic position, nestled between the rolling hills and the River South Tyne, is evident, making it an ideal location for military defense. Surrounding the fort, a thriving settlement emerges, with a mosaic of rectangular buildings and winding streets. The intricate details of the structures, including their thatched roofs and smoke rising from their chimneys, add a sense of authenticity to the scene. The presence of a bathhouse, indicated by the steaming hot springs, suggests a community of both soldiers and civilians. The landscape beyond the fort is dotted with farmsteads and fields, demonstrating the interconnectedness of the military and civilian populations. The nearby woodland and water sources would have provided essential resources for both the fort and the settlement. This reconstruction drawing invites us to imagine the daily life of the Roman inhabitants of Whitley Castle, offering a unique window into the rich history of this fascinating archaeological site.
