Discover one of the most impressive archaeological finds in Northern England: the Roman bathhouse beneath Carlisle Cricket Club, part of the Uxelodunum (Petriana) fort on Hadrian's Wall. Since 2017, thousands of artifacts have been unearthed here, including underfloor heating, over 700 coins, signet ring intaglios, spearheads, and possibly statues of emperors such as Septimius Severus.
Measuring at least 50 x 60 meters, spread over five terraces, this complex of baths, administrative, and religious spaces—a Roman wellness center and imperial reception center.

Following an archaeological investigation at the Carlisle Cricket Club, the remains of a possible Roman Bathhouse or Mansion, an official stopping place for travelling Roman officials has been discovered, believed to date to the 3rd – 4th century AD.
Earlier this season a team of archaeologists uncovered the remains of three rooms all equipped with a Roman underfloor heating system known as a Hypocaust.
Vast quantities of pottery, bone and metal objects were found as well as an exceptionally engraved stone fragment with an inscription dedicated to Julia Domna, the mother of the most Holy Emperor Alexander Severus.
