EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative reconstruction drawing by Philip Corke brings to life Turret 36b at Housesteads Roman Fort, a testament to the grandeur and engineering prowess of the ancient Romans. Located in Northumberland, England, and originally named Vercovicium, Housesteads Fort is an essential part of Hadrian's Wall, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Turret 36b, one of the many defensive structures along the wall, served as a lookout post for soldiers stationed along the frontier. The turret's circular design, with its narrow entrance and small windows, was strategically designed to provide a clear view of the surrounding landscape while minimizing the risk of attack. The intricate details in this drawing showcase the meticulous craftsmanship and historical accuracy that Philip Corke brings to his work. The turret's outer walls, made of large, rectangular stones, are depicted with mortar joints and the remnants of a whitewash finish. The interior is illustrated with a central hearth, a storage area, and a small latrine, providing a glimpse into the daily life of the soldiers who once called this fort home. Housesteads Roman Fort, with its impressive ruins and stunning views of the Northumberland countryside, continues to captivate visitors and historians alike. This exquisite reconstruction drawing by Philip Corke serves as a reminder of the rich history and enduring legacy of the Roman Empire in Britain.
