Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation, consisting of the excavation of five trial trenches, was undertaken ahead of proposed developments. The site was adjacent to an area of known archaeological remains, including a Roman cremation cemetery and a possible Roman villa. The evaluation revealed evidence for the extensive dumping of material during the landscaping of the school grounds. A Roman sestertius of 1st to 2nd century date was recovered from this material. No in-situ archaeological features or deposits were discovered. [Au(adp)] |
