Binchester Roman fort, Roman Vinovia, sometimes Vinovium, lies on a hilltop spur about one and a quarter miles north of the modern town of Bishop Auckland in County Durham between the River Wear and the River Gaunless. Although there has been interest in the site since the sixteenth century, it was not until a Time Team dig that large-scale public interest really awakened and a five-year international field project was begun. This book will use the results of this work to present a clear picture of the history of the site and its place in the Roman military north.
