Monument record TR 34 SW 1626 - Barrack block (B19) of the CLBR fort II, located at the Cause is Altered site, Dover
Summary
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 an area which was originally occupied by the Cause Is Altered Public House near Princes Street (Cause Is Altered Site) in 1971, revealed the remains of an interesting (possible barrack) building which had been modified once and substantially re-built twice. (location accurate to the nearest 2m based on available information)
