Abstract:
Excavation took place in 2002-2003 in the location of pile caps and lift pits, with general ground reduction to the formation level for the proposed development. Natural brickearth lay between c 10.9-11.4m OD. The site produced evidence of several phases of 1st century Roman clay and timber buildings, including demolition material originating from more than one episode of fire. Structures from these buildings included a small tile-lined oven and part of a tile and mortar channel - possibly a hypocaust or flue. Masonry remains and floor surfaces associated with the east wing of the second forum were recorded across the site, giving some indication of the layout and appearance of this part of the complex; there was some evidence for later modifications to the forum structure. Between the uppermost floors of the outer portico, there was evidence of metalworking, possibly indicating a change of use in the complex. Many of the forum walls were robbed during the early medieval period. Gravel surfaces of the north-south road to the east of the forum, and its associated drainage features were also observed. On the opposite side of this road, an unusual tile, flint and chalk structure with timber lacing may have been part of a late Roman building. Post-Roman survival was in the form of cut features, comprising medieval robber cuts and rubbish pits, and post-medieval brick-lined cesspits and wells.
