Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
The site of Drayton II Villa is located in south-east Leicestershire, close to the crossing point of the Gartree Roman Road and the River Welland (SP 817 918). it was first noticed in the eighteenth century and is mentioned in Nichols’ History and Antiquities of the County of Leicester, but was not rediscovered until deep ploughing in the late 1970s. It then became the focus of both rigorous field walking and geophysical survey by the Leicestershire museums survey team and the University of Leicester. The villa was then excavated jointly until 1993 as a field school for the University, and for the employment training scheme of County Council. Regretfully this interesting Roman rural site has never seen full publication. The chance has been taken here to report a finger ring, which must be one of the most significant finds from the site that has yet to receive comment. | ||
