Mamucium

Mamucium, also known as Mancunium, was a fort in the Roman province of Britannia. The remains of the fort, protected as a Scheduled Ancient Monument, are in the Castlefield area of Manchester in North West England (grid reference SJ833977). Founded c. AD 79, Mamucium was garrisoned by a cohort of auxiliary soldiers and guarded the road running from Chester to York. A vicus, or civilian settlement made up of traders and the families of the soldiers, grew outside the fort and was an area of industrial activity.

The site lay in ruins until the Industrial Revolution when Manchester expanded and the fort was levelled to make way for new developments. It was damaged by the construction of the Rochdale Canal and the Great Northern Railway. The site is now part of the regenerated area of warehousing alongside the Rochdale Canal, part of the Castlefield Urban Heritage Park. Reconstructed remains of the fort's gatehouse, granaries, and some buildings from the vicus are on display to the public.

    The fort of Mamucium sits in the heart of Manchester at Castlefields and is free to view although a daylight visit is recommended. The fort was founded around AD79 and had 3 rebuilds during its operation with the fort being abandoned towards the end of Roman Britain in the 5th Century. Trains stop at Oxford Street or Deansgate otherwise it’s a 15 minute walk from the central shopping area. #archaeology #history

    The Roman fort of Mamucium was the birthplace of modern Manchester. Mamucium, also known as Mancunium, is a former Roman fort in the Castlefield area of Manchester in North West England. The castrum, which was founded c. AD 79 within the Roman province of Roman Britain, was garrisoned by a cohort of Roman auxiliaries near two major Roman roads running through the area. The Roman fort of Mamucium was built in 79 AD near the confluence of the River Medlock and River Irwell. It was constructed to guard strategically important roads to larger Roman forts at Chester, York, and Ribchester. The fort was garrisoned by a cohort (480 soldiers) of auxiliaries.
