Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was carried out during the laying of a surface water pipe running immediately to the south of, and parallel to, the existing A43 road, and within the scheduled area of the Roman villa. For much of its course the pipeline trench lay within ground disturbed by the former railway line and more recent road construction. No archaeological features were observed to the immediate south of the present road, where any earlier deposits had been totally removed. At the eastern end of the trench, which ran south-eastward across a pasture field to join the existing culvert, there was a buried soil of probable medieval date and an overlying alluvial layer of probable post-medieval date, both of which contained residual Roman pottery and some ceramic tile.
