Abstract: |
A watching brief was maintained by Cotswold Archaeology during groundworks associated with gas main replacement in St David's Terrace and Dinham Road, Exeter. The proposed works were located to the north of an excavation undertaken by Exeter Archaeology in 2008 which produced evidence for post-trench timber buildings and a cremation burial of the Roman military period (c. A.D. 55-75). It was therefore considered possible that significant remains or deposits of Roman or later date might survive within the proposed works area and may be exposed during trenching. The works comprised the excavation of 12 trenches, for insertion of a replacement gas main. All of the works exposed ground heavily disturbed by modern services to an average depth of between 600- 850mm below current ground level. Trench 10 exposed archaeological deposits, although none were of archaeological importance |
