SUMMARY Since Douet’s landmark volume (1998), barrack architecture has received little scholarly attention – especially from archaeologists. This study draws a detailed biography of the Officers’ Barracks at Tilbury Fort, analyzing the importance of its domestic terraced form and highlighting the relevance of this case study to broader study of barrack buildings. The approach considers the building inextricable from its inhabitants and archaeological analysis of the fabric, internally and externally, reveals an institutional structure transformed into a ‘home’ by the privilege of the officers’ rank. The slow but steady development of a building constantly in use is etched into the fabric, as is the transient and diverse community that occupied it. The date and phasing of the structure is rethought as a consequence. This study demonstrates that this architectural type which is often presumed homogenous is actually subject to complex themes of social status and gender.

在家中的营房：蒂尔伯里堡（Tilbury Fort）和中世纪后军事建筑的考古学

总结自从杜埃（Douet）具有里程碑意义的著作（1998年）以来，营房建筑一直很少受到学术界的关注，尤其是考古学家。这项研究绘制了提尔伯里堡官兵营的详细传记，分析了其家中梯田形式的重要性，并强调了此案例研究与更广泛的营房建筑研究的相关性。该方法认为该建筑物与其居民是分不开的，并且对建筑物的内部和外部进行了考古学分析，揭示了一种由军官级特权转变为“家”的体制结构。不断使用的建筑物缓慢但稳定的发展被蚀刻到织物中，占据建筑物的瞬息万变的社区也是如此。因此，需要重新考虑结构的日期和阶段。
