Virosidvm Roman Fort, Bainbridge
The site of Virosidvm Roman Fort on Brough Hill, Bainbridge, Wensleydale in the Yorkshire Dales, North Yorkshire.
The Latin translation of 'Virosidvm' was the 'Settlement of true men'. The location of the fort, deep within Brigantian territory is now believed to indicate a connection with the Brigantian campaigns of Quintus Petillius Cerialis who was governor of Britain from AD 71-74. The fort was originally built from timber with clay ramparts, but after a probable attack by the Brigantes in the rebellion of AD 115, the barracks were rebuilt in stone and the ramparts strengthened with sandstone. The fort was in use until the end of the Roman Period AD 410.
