| Abstract: |
Remains of significant archaeological potential were discovered during an evaluation inadvance of a proposed residential development. A Late Iron Age north-south aligned ditch, overlain by a clay floor with drainage gullies and post holes was located. A metalled street surface between two known Roman street was also noted. A series of post holes defined a substantial timber building of Roman date. These features were sealed by a clay floor containing pottery dated to the late 1st and early 3rd centuries. A layer of garden soil containing finds dating from the Late Iron Age to post-medieval periods was detected, and thought to confirm this area as waste ground, orchards and gardens from the medieval period onwards.
