We learned about how archaeologists discover the past. Recent digs had discovered coins, shoes, pottery and writing tablets left by the Romans. We explored the ruins and discovered that the site was a Roman village and a Roman fort. The fort was surrounded by a stone wall, which held barracks, head quarters with a strong room and commanders quarters. The village contained a bath house, a butchers , workshops and a tavern. ![](https://yarmprimaryschool.net/images/blog/505.jpg) [ Working together](https://yarmprimaryschool.net/blog/2018-09-19-00-00-00-working-together) [Well done Y2SW ](https://yarmprimaryschool.net/blog/2018-09-20-00-00-00-well-done-y2sw) ![Yarm Primary Academy](https://files.schudio.com/yarm-primary-school-2/images/logo/Yarm-Logo(1).png) ### Yarm Primary Academy Spitalfields Yarm STOCKTON-ON-TEES TS15 9HF 01642 782731 ### Social Media - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/yarmprimaryschool/) © Copyright 2026 Yarm Primary Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://yarmprimaryschool.net/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
