Recovered from the site of the Roman fortress at Templeborough. The Latin inscription on the base of the middle stone has been translated thus - "To the spirits of the departed and Crotus Vindex, veteran of the Fourth Cohort of Gauls, forty years old, this monument was made and its inscription set down by Flavia Peregrina a most faithful wife for a most faithful husband."
