Abstract: |
The site was situated in the north eastern corner of the Roman town of Corinium, within the town defences. There was evidence for the line of a Roman Road in the close vicinity of the site, excavated in 1964 and 1995. The Anglo-Saxon church and medieval abbey were to the south east of the site, and Abbey Lake itself was a fishpond. Material from the 16th century demolition of the abbey had been found within the Abbey grounds, as well as alluvium deposited by the River Churn in the medieval period. [Au(adap)] |
