During extensive rescue excavations undertaken across Dover’s Town centre by Kent Archaeological Rescue Unit, substantial remains of the Classis Britannica fort were uncovered and recorded. Excavations in 1973-74, at the former site of the substantial Warren and Reynolds store, to the north of Queen Street, an extensive area of metalling was observed covering most of the site, and extended beyond the area of excavation in at least two directions. This metalling represents the forecourt located immediately outside the western gate of the fort. (location accurate to the nearest 2m based on available information).
