Milecastle 37, Roman fortification at Hadrian's Wall, England.
Milecastle 37 stands with stone walls reaching 2.2 meters in height and contains a preserved barrack block in its eastern section.
The structure underwent three distinct construction phases of its north gate during Roman occupation, as revealed through archaeological excavations between 1853 and 1989.
Archaeological findings at the site include two Roman altars with inscriptions dedicated to Cocidius and Jupiter, indicating religious practices of stationed soldiers.
Visitors can access the fortification through the Hadrian's Wall Path, which connects multiple historical sites along the ancient Roman frontier barrier.
The milecastle features a stone oven in its southeast corner, demonstrating the daily living arrangements of Roman auxiliary troops stationed at this frontier post.
