Abstract: |
Archaeological monitoring was undertaken during geotechnical test-pitting. Roman deposits were identified containing a small piece of opus signinum (Roman concrete), with brick and tile, grey ware pottery (including a rim sherd) coal and slag. Artefacts were found in four of the five test pits and appeared to correspond with the theory that the site lay over the defensive ditches of a Roman fort. Further archaeological mitigation was recommended in the form of a field evaluation. [AIP] |
