Milecastle 67 (Stainton) is a conjectured
railway cutting.[1]
Excavations and investigations
- 1861 – Roman coins found during railway cutting construction.
Associated turrets
Each milecastle on Hadrian's Wall had two associated turret structures. These turrets were positioned approximately one-third and two-thirds of a
Roman mile to the west of the Milecastle, and would probably have been manned by part of the milecastle's garrison. The turrets associated with Milecastle 67 are known as Turret 67A (grid reference NY377565) and Turret 67B (grid reference NY373567
), though no evidence of either has been identified.
