Abstract: |
Evaluation of a small plot of land destined for housing development revealed a series of boundary ditches and a large pit type feature. The pottery from the features suggested intense activity on this site in the late Roman period. The pottery assemblage included many of the products that were exclusive to the late 3rd and 4th centuries and a high proportion of provincially-traded late specialist wares from the Nene Valley, Oxfordshire, Much Hadham (Herts) and the East Midlands. Finds collected from the surface during a rapid fieldwalking survey of the area included tegulae and box flue tiles indicative of a hypocaust in the vicinity. Three coins dating to the 4th century were also found. [Au(abr)] |
