| Abstract: |
Roman pottery was found within contractors' trenches at a development site, which was subsequently visited by an archaeologist. The material was found to consist principally of quite large sherds of mortaria and white ware flagons, with smaller amounts of oxidised and reduced coarse wares. All appeared to be of 2nd century date. A number of pieces of kiln superstructure were also present. It was not clear whether the finds represented the remains of an in situ pottery kiln, or a dump of material from a kiln situated nearby; the former possibility was considered to be more likely. The findspot lay within 100m of a kiln discovered in 1953. Additional finds recovered from spoil heaps at the development site included a potter's stamp from a white mortarium, and a lion head spout.
