Abstract: |
The field evaluation was undertaken on the outskirts of Devizes. Trenching was expanded due to the presence of a large amount of Romano-British remains in the western portion of the site. These comprised stone structures, possibly ovens, and cut features, largely concentrated in the northern portion of the zone, and evidence for a buried soil horizon containing significant quantities of Romano-British artefacts. All the evidence suggested that settlement activity was likely to have dated to the latter prt of the Roman occupation and a date centred on AD 350 did not seem inappropriate. [Au(abr)] |
