The Gazetteer is organised by Counties and unitary authorities, preceded by summaries of groups of sites: frontiers or industrial areas.

English names, Roman names where known, four figure map reference, site type, size, and history, including garrisons and associated military units.

Where there is uncertainty over identification of an element a ? is used after the element: a ? before a Roman name means that the form of the name is uncertain, but that it is linked to that site.

Provides access to the references given for sites. These are not comprehensive, but provide the detail required to judge the existence of a site and provide links to complete bibliographies.

Although there would have been limits to Roman control in this period these would have not been static frontier zones, but instead would have been based on diplomacy and military patrolling.

The Fosse is a post-Roman name for the road.
