Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at a proposed development site which was crossed by the suspected route of a Roman road. Of the four trenches excavated, two revealed deep modern truncation and contamination, whilst a third revealed several features. These included a large pit containing a flint core and several flakes, a Roman ditch, a medieval ditch and a number of post-medieval pits and cuts. Residual medieval pottery was recovered. The Roman ditch was located in the correct position to be the western ditch of the road, although no surviving road surface was observed. The medieval ditch was presumed to be the rear property boundary of a frontage plot on Bradford Street. [Au(abr)] |
