Tribryn: Bringing Iron Age Trimontium to Life

Help us construct an Iron Age Roundhouse in the heart of the Scottish Borders, to tell the story of the native peoples who witnessed the arrival of the Roman army at Trimontium.

The Trimontium Trust promotes the story of Trimontium, the largest Roman fort north of Hadrian’s Wall, & the interaction between the invading Romans & native Iron-Age tribes. We operate an award-winning museum in Melrose, plus volunteer, archaeological & educational activities throughout the year

Story

Bringing Iron Age Trimontium to Life

Long before Roman soldiers marched beneath the Eildon Hills, this landscape was home to thriving Iron Age communities.

For generations, families lived, farmed, crafted and built their homes here, shaping the landscape long before the arrival of Rome and continuing to do so long after the legions had departed.

Yet today, while the story of the Roman fort at Trimontium is increasingly well known, the lives of the people who called this place home remain largely hidden.

Tribryn is changing that.

Our vision is to create the Scottish Borders’ first Iron Age reconstruction site, bringing this remarkable chapter of our shared heritage back to life through archaeology, education and community.
