Heard it said years ago that Metchley, Alcester Etc., formed part of a temporary frontier defence system in the early years after the Claudian invasion, but never seen any evidence of this since.

I'm a bit bonkers about this sort of thing, the first history book I owned was about Pompeii, my walk home from school took me through the remains of Metchley Roman fort before the modern developments. Spent a day (only) in Pompeii dragging my poor wife across the town under the hot August sun.
As part of a major cultural event backed by the Council of Europe and the European Commission, on 26–27 September 2026 Pompeii Archaeological Park will offer historical re-enactments and educational activities.
