Abstract:		 <summary>An evaluation was undertaken of land proposed for development off Meeting Lane, Towcester, between Watling Street and Richmond Road, within the walled Roman town of {italon}Lactodurum{italoff}. Romano-British features, including pits and ditches, were revealed, overlain by a thick layer of dark earth suggestive of dereliction or agricultural use of the area. Towards the centre of the site a wall of medieval or later date, set within a substantial foundation trench cut into the dark loamy layer, was revealed. The purpose of the wall was uncertain. {italon}Sec(adp)(10b){italoff}
