Ambleside Roman Fort
Ambleside Roman Fort is the modern name given to the remains of a fort of the Roman province of Britannia. The ruins have been tentatively identified as those of either Galava or Clanoventa, mentioned in the Antonine Itinerary.〔Smith 1997, pp. 372, 374, 378.〕 Dating to the 1st or 2nd century AD,〔English Heritage 2004.〕 its ruins are located on the northern shore of Windermere at Waterhead, near Ambleside,〔Ordnance Survey 2011.〕 in the English county of Cumbria,〔English Heritage undated 1.〕 within the boundaries of the Lake District National Park.〔
It guarded the Roman road from Brougham to Ravenglass. There is also assumed to have been a road south to the fort at Kendal. The ruins are a grade I listed structure.〔Historic England 1974.〕 The site is open to the public, and is owned and managed by the National Trust.〔English Heritage undated 2. Taylor 2013, p. 2.〕 The site is a scheduled monument with list entry numbers of 1009348 and 1244785 (formerly RSM 13567 and RBS 450573).〔Historic England 1974. Historic England 1992.〕
==Location==
Ambleside Roman Fort is situated approximately south of Ambleside town centre, at the north end of Lake Windermere,〔Taylor 2013, p. 4.〕 upon the eastern banks of the Brathay and Rothay rivers.〔Leech 1993, p. 52.〕 The ruins occupy a field, known as Borrans Field, between the Brathay and Borrans Park.〔
The remains of the fort are situated upon a sand and gravel platform in Borrans Fields, which gently rises from the lakeshore. The fort stands less than above the water level of the lake. The fort is bordered to the south and west by marsh, and an outcrop of rock dominates the northern section of Borrans Field.〔 The underlying bedrock is volcanic tuff of the Lincomb Tarns Tuff Formation, overlain with alluvium. The soil is freely draining loam.〔Taylor 2013, p. 5.〕
