Abstract: |
In August 2009 Archaeological Solutions (AS) carried out a programme of archaeological evaluation at the site of The Swan Public House, Watling Street, Park Street, St Albans, Hertfordshire (NGR TL 1477 0404). The programme was undertaken as part of a planning condition on approval for proposed residential redevelopment of the site. The village of Park Street lies c. 2.5km to the south of the centre of St. Albans. The site lies towards the northern end of the historic core of the village, on the west side of roman Road of Watling Street. It has a potential for Romano-British archaeological remains. The programme revealed one undated gully and a residual prehistoric struck flint fragment. The gully runs c.13m to the west of the modern road (Park Street) and potentially represents the remainder of the roadside ditch for Watling Street, although the lack of finds recovered makes it difficult to firmly establish this. |
