Alavna Roman Fort, Cumberland   (Roman Remains)

Alavna Roman Fort (aka Alauna) is a Roman castrum in Cumberland. The fort is situated just north of Maryport (Alavna being its Roman name) and formed part of the ‘Western Sea Defences’. It was linked by a Roman road to the Roman fort and settlement at Derventio (Papcastle) to the south-east, and thence by another road north-east to the regional hub of Luguvalium (Carlisle). The fort was established during the reign of the emperor Hadrian (around AD 122) as a command and supply base for the coastal defences of Hadrian's Wall at its western extremity. There are substantial remains of the Roman fort, which was one of a series along the Cumberland coast intended to prevent Hadrian's Wall being outflanked by crossing the Solway Firth. Geo-magnetic surveys have revealed a large Roman town surrounding the fort. It is within the council area of Cumberland.
