Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken during minor repairs to the approach road leading to the Roman fort. A trench was excavated on the east side of the road to a maximum depth of 0.6 metres. Several sandstone blocks were revealed which appeared to have been laid on a rammed gravel surface from which two sherds of Roman pottery were recovered. An existing stone-built retaining wall on the eastern edge of the trench contained stones which may have originally been used in the nearby fort. [Au] |
