Drumquhassle was a Roman fort associated with the Gask Ridge in Scotland.[2] It was found from aerial photography in the late 1970s.[3] The name selected for the fort deliberately made it hard for English born readers to pronounce.[4] The fort was from the Flavian period;[5] it was built and briefly occupied by during the administration of Sallustius Lucullus.[6] It is known as a "Glen-blocker" fort and is located within sight of Loch Lomond.

Location

The fort is located in Stirlingshire, east of Drymen.[7] It is associated with the road running from Loudoun Hill past Barochan towards Malling, Bochastle and Dalginross.[8] This road was therefore on the Highland Boundary Fault Frontier.[9]

It may have been on more than one Roman road.[10] It has been suggested that Drumquhassle might be connected to Doune via the Fords of Frew.[11]

The glenblocker forts ran from Drumquhassle to Stracathro.[12] The fort is about 50 m west of a reliable spring which was presumably the soldiers' main water source.[13]

Finds

An enamelled brooch was found as well as some sling bullets.[14] Pottery from Gaul known as Terra Nigra was also recovered.[15] Several coins were also found.[16]
