Built between about AD 120 and 138, the fort was abandoned during the Antonine advance into Scotland during the mid 2nd Century. The fort was reoccupied c AD 200 and continued in use until the last years of the 4th century. During this time an extensive vicus developed outside the fort. The Roman garrison here was a detachment of 500 cavalry from the Dalmatian coast.
