Abstract: |
The evaluation was undertaken on two sites located within Metchley Roman forts. Area A investigated part of the eastern defences of the fort, and a length of the eastern 'intervallum' space of the larger Phase 1-2 forts. This area also investigated part of the right side of the 'retentura', part of the right side of the central range and part of the interior of the eastern annexe. A single trial trench in Area B was located to examine the north-eastern corner of the Phase 1-3 fort defences. Areas previously excavated in the 1960s were also examined, and this confirmed that a number of archaeological features had not been fully excavated at that time, and had also survived later disturbances.
