Abstract: |
The excavation and watching brief were undertaken prior to the construction of an extension and improvements of the College. Excavation to the south-west of the main college building revealed only 20th century features. The watching brief at the main gate revealed a dump containing Roman pottery, the butt-ends of two possible beam slots, a larger linear feature, a pit, post hole, and a possible kiln. The evidence suggested Roman occupation close to Brampton Road, probably ending by the late third century AD. No evidence for the Hadrian's Wall Vallum was present in this area. [Au] |
