This is situated 522 yards from milecastle 8, only pottery and occupation earth were found, the turret being completely covered by the road. (2)

The turret was `located' in 1928, 512 yards from milecastle 8 `below the modern south wall of the roadway in their normal positions' but these reports differ from authority 2 as to the location and neither agrees with the OS map position (4a-b). The measured position only has been drawn on the RCHME 1:1250 overlay at NZ 1880 6596; there is no surface trace of the turret on the side of the road. (4)
