Abstract: |
An archaeological investigation was undertaken on behalf of Hereford Council on the A4103, Roman Road, Hereford (NGR ref. SO 465 424 to SO 488 423; SMR ref HSM 38193-5 and 38917). Ten test pits were archaeologically monitored. The well-preserved Roman road surface was identified in one test pit, at the east end of the improvement scheme, sealed by a thin band of alluvium. Elsewhere the natural clay was found to lie directly below gravel hardcore layers, three of which may represent disturbed areas of the Roman road. Frequent deep service trenches were also noted, cut into the natural matrix. |
