Abstract:
Archaeological monitoring and recording, and excavation was undertaken prior to the proposed extension which included a car park with basement and an access ramp. The works represented the final phase of archaeological investigation of a Roman cemetery, the bulk of which had been excavated by HAT in May/June 2001. The earlier work had revealed the remains of a Roman cemetery comprising 62 inhumations. Also excavated were a number of earlier Roman features including several substantial pits. The cemetery was seen to partially extend beyond the then accessible part of the development site. As a result, the northern and western fringes of the initial excavation were subject to archaeological monitoring and recording during enabling works for the proposed development. This watching brief and subsequent archaeological excavation revealed a further 33 Roman graves and one earlier pit. These inhumations, like those found previously, were unaccompanied, aligned east-west and laid out in rows. [Au(abr)]
