An "artisan and trading settlement" of c 8ha developed from c 60-65 onwards, on two main roads. The temple site, described in greater detail, had its origins in a prehistoric earthwork; a later ditched enclosure was succeeded c 65-75 by a shrine complex of partly-open timber structures and ancillary features. An octagonal Romano-Celtic temple was constructed c 320-25, and continued in use until early 5th century; sub-Roman and possibly Germanic occupation followed. The site was re-occupied briefly during 13th century probably as part of a dyer's establishment. Au
