Abstract: |
Excavations at Known Archaeology Area 17 RRP confirmed the presence of a well preserved section of the Roman road from Castleford to Tadcaster. A number of trackways of uncertain date were also observed below the modern A656. Analysis of the site in its landscape context presented the opportunity to study the impact of Romanisation on the native British landscape. Analysis of the environmental record was expected to enhance archaeological understanding of the local environment prior to the construction of the Roman road. [Au] |
