Facts and practical information

Chew Green is the site of the ancient Roman encampment, commonly but erroneously called Ad Fines on the 1885-1900 edition of the Ordnance Survey map, in Northumberland, England, 8 miles north of Rochester and 9 miles west of Alwinton. The encampment was adjacent to Dere Street, a Roman road that stretched south to York, and almost on the present-day border with Scotland. ()
