| Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at the proposed site of a residential development, which lay to the north-west of the Roman town of Caesaromagus and to the south of a medieval priory. The route of a Roman road may have passed through the site. During the evaluation, a shallow feature which may have been a truncated ditch or a pit was recorded. It contained a very abraded Roman tile fragment and a single sherd of post-medieval red earthenware. The feature may have pre-dated the post-medieval period, but was unlikely to have been associated with the Roman road. Any evidence of the road may have been removed by a large, modern brick-rubble-filled feature observed in the southern half of the evaluation trench, and by 19th century truncation. [AIP] |
