Milecastle 47 (Chapel House) was a milecastle on Hadrian's Wall (grid reference NY64906607
Description
[ edit ]
Milecastle 47 is about 270 metres east of Chapel House near Gilsland .[1] [1] [1]
Associated turrets
[ edit ]
Each milecastle on Hadrian's Wall had two associated turret structures. These turrets were positioned approximately one-third and two-thirds of a Roman mile to the west of the Milecastle, and would probably have been manned by part of the milecastle's garrison. The turrets associated with Milecastle 47 are known as Turret 47A and Turret 47B .
