TRIPONTIUM (Caves Inn) Warwickshire, England.

A roadside settlement along Watling Street. It is mentioned in the Antonine Itinerary. Much has been found in sand and gravel-working, including a military mess-tin, which suggests a 1st c. fort S of the main finds. Excavation has revealed a spread of occupation for at least 1.6 km along the road, and a scatter of 4th c. burials. The only substantial building with a stone foundation is a house of courtyard type which may have been a mansio. A small, rectangular, single-ditched enclosure is bisected by the road; and like others along this road is presumably 4th c.
