点评:The fort at Birdoswald has been fitted out by English Heritage to make it very accessible for children and families to learn more about the history of the area.
The site isn't as heavily excavated as others, for example Chedworth, which seems like a conscious decision to protect the ruins. This means that you do need to use more of your imagination to consider what the site may have looked like. On a sunny day, with the view across the valley, this isn't too difficult to do. There is a little trail taking you round the space outside which was fun, but as others have noted some of the boards are becoming quite worn. Despite this we had a lot of fun exploring.
Inside there are activities to help children learn about Roman life, with Lego wall building, a quiz to figure out your Roman job, and a signalling game, our daughter really enjoyed playing and may have even learned something! With facilities including a cafe and toilets, this is a great place to learn more about Hadrian's Wall and some of the history of Roman Britain.

该遗址的挖掘工作不如切德沃斯等其他遗址那么深入,这似乎是出于保护遗址的考虑。这意味着您需要发挥更多的想象力来想象遗址昔日的面貌。在阳光明媚的日子里,欣赏山谷的景色,这并不难。堡垒外面有一条小路可以带您绕行,这很有趣,但正如其他人所说,一些木板已经磨损严重。尽管如此,我们仍然在探索中玩得很开心。
堡垒内部有一些活动可以帮助孩子们了解罗马人的生活,比如乐高墙搭建、猜罗马职业的测验以及信号游戏。我们的女儿玩得非常开心,甚至可能学到了一些东西!堡垒内设有咖啡馆和卫生间等设施,是了解哈德良长城和罗马不列颠历史的好地方。
