Roman Lincolnshire

I must have produced multiple versions of this over the years (somewhere I've got a more colourful version for use in presentations). This one appeared in the conference proceedings Rumours of Roman Finds that I put together a couple of years back. Ancient coastline based on The Fenland in Roman Times version with additions based on lidar surveys. Bannovalium is deliberate (Rivet and Smith have it as cognate to such as Luguvalium and nothing to do with vallum at all, despite the name of the local school). Despite Mackreth's strictures Durobrivae will probably ever be known as Water Newton for all that it actually falls in Chesterton parish.
