Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief with limited excavation was conducted on land at 419 Wick Lane as part of the site's remediation works. During this time, the structural remains of a large Roman building, suggested to be a Mansio or stopping house were revealed. There was no evidence of the associated road. No Saxon or medieval remains were observed. Made ground was dumped on the site in the post-medieval period as a precursor to the building of industrial structures, initially as a Dye House (though not observed) and later becoming a printing-ink factory. Several phases of the printing-ink works were recorded, the development of which continued until the mid-20th century. |
