Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken on land adjacent to and within the SAM Tripontium Roman Station (Warwickshire County Monument No. 097). The results demonstrated that post-medieval quarrying of gravel was extensive across the whole area of the evaluation. The quarrying consisted of a series of 19th century or later gravel pits, with small areas of natural sand and gravel surviving. No earlier archaeological remains were present. Amongst the post-medieval material recovered (brick, tile, concrete, china, glass and clay-pipe), a quantity of redeposited Roman finds, including pottery, tile and a fragment of quern stone, were retrieved, perhaps derived from Roman deposits that had been destroyed by the quarrying.
