<p>The Binchester Roman Fort is a scheduled ancient monument. It is a criminal offence
to disturb a scheduled ancient monument by carrying out works without Scheduled Monument
Consent, or causing reckless or deliberate damage to the monument. To offer best protection,
public access to the excavated parts of the Fort is managed and controlled in accordance
with a Deed of Guardianship with Durham County Council. This means that, as Guardians,
Durham County Council must allow access to the site, but are able to do so in such
a way as protects and preserves the site for the future. The property will be sold
subject to this Deed of Guardianship.</p><p> </p>
