DORN Gloucestershire, England.

On the Fosse Way 8 km N of Stow on the Wold. A Roman settlement here had long been inferred from finds of sculptured stones, pottery, and coins (2d-4th c.); in 1960 air photographs revealed a ditched enclosure of ca. 4 ha (faintly visible on the ground) with a system of parallel streets within it. Its situation beside, not athwart, the Roman road has suggested that it may have originated as a fort, and the modern name preserves the element “duro.” A sculptured panel inscribed Dea Regina (RIB 125) was found in 1906 at Lemington, 0.8 km to the E.
