Raedykes Camp
Marching or Temporary Camp
The remains of this large and irregularly-shaped marching camp were visited in driving rain. The extreme size and exposure of the site was readily apparent, but the wet conditions and profusion of sheep-droppings made the steep ground of the site very hazardous to traverse and the visit was curtailed.
