Durolevum was a Roman settlement in Britain. [1] The only surviving mention of it from antiquity appears in the Antonine Itinerary, where it forms part of the Roman equivalent of Watling Street, connecting Rutupiae ( Richborough) to Londinium ( London). It is now thought to have been located at Ospringe in Kent, after the discovery of Roman ruins between Judd's Hill and Beacon Hill in 1931, [2] but this remains uncertain. [3]
