Abstract: |
<summary>An evaluation was undertaken to locate the defences of the Roman settlement at Leintwardine, expected to exist in this area. In fact the rampart lay just within the western boundary of this property, the alteration in its course visible here perhaps reflecting the reconstructed corner suggested by S C Stanford in 1968. Material eroded from the rampart and the rampart itself overlay a stone surface, though the orientation of this presumed track or road (or yard?) could not be determined. A buried soil separated the inner and outer defensive ditches. There was evidence of small-scale industrial activity being undertaken outside the rampart. Only the inner edge of the outer ditch was located; the outer ditch appeared to be very substantial, but evidence for its nature was not conclusive. {italon}Au(adp){italoff} {italon}SMR Primary Record Numbers:{italoff} HWCM10863 |
