Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Excavation undertaken in advance of development unearthed Roman deposits, mostly datable to the third and fourth centuries AD. The site was used for agricultural and domestic purposes in this period and was adjacent to areas of ironworking. The site was abandoned at the end of the Roman period and was probably used for agricultural or horticultural purposes through the post-Roman and medieval periods. More intensive activity occurred from the seventeenth century onwards and in the eighteenth century the area was occupied by buildings. Although part of the site was damaged by driven piles, the majority of the deposits were preserved in situ beneath new office buildings and car parks. Specialist reports include `The structural sequence' by C H Dalwood (78-82), `Soil micromorphology' by R I Macphail (83-5), `Botanical remains' by C de Rouffignac (85-6), `Animal bones' by S Pinter-Bellows (86-9), `The pottery' by V A Buteux (89-98) including details of the `Samian ware' by Brenda Dickinson (94), `Medieval floor tiles' by H A White (98-9), `Artefacts of ceramic, metal, stone, bone and glass' by V A Buteux (99-103) including details of three `Coins' by Mark Curteis (102), `Metallurgical analysis of the slags' by J G McDonnell (103-4). Discussions concerning the Roman settlement, medieval suburb and post-medieval developments, are followed by a consideration of the effects of the driven piles on the archaeological deposits. | |||||||||||||||||
