Abstract: |
In May 2013 the Archaeology Service, Shropshire Council carried out a watching brief at Norton Farm, Wroxeter, Shropshire, on the excavation of a water pipe trench along the line of part of the northern defences of the Roman city. The trench cut through topsoil and a buried ploughsoil, which lay over re-deposited sand, possibly representing rampart material. A number of features were seen in the base of the pipe trench. A small quantity of Roman and post-medieval pottery was recovered from the buried ploughsoil deposit. No other significant archaeological features or deposits were seen during the watching brief. |
