Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief and subsequent excavation was carried out by Birmingham University Field Archaeology Unit during the laying of a replacement rising water main in Princethorpe parish, Warwickshire. The route of the pipeline passed through the site of a Romano-British settlement and the Fosse Way, a Roman road. A concentration of archaeological features was exposed immediately to the west of the Fosse Way; stratified sequences of features and deposits were recorded in an excavation area 20m x 3.8m (post holes, a ditch and the remains of hearths, which contained sherds of Romano-British pottery in their fills). A trench cut through the existing Fosse Way under archaeological supervision revealed what appeared to be the remains of the original (Roman) Fosse Way road structure.[AIP] |
