Abstract: |
Excavations at the base of Brockley Hill revealed evidence of sporadic Romano-British activity. Discrete deposits of gravel and concentrations of fragmentary and abraded Roman masonry and ceramics were found adjacent to the road in the south of the site, and this area may have served as a road-maintenance depot. Evidence of industrial activity was recovered in the north of the site, but its precise nature was unclear. The presence of a series of large ponds or wells may have been linked with the industrial use of the site or indicate that it also served as a watering place for drovers travelling between London and Verulamium.
