| Abstract: |
A watching brief was maintained during road widening and drainage works between Mere Cross Roads and Low Farm. The stretch of road monitored passed close to a trackway, a Romano-British settlement and cropmarks of enclosures and field boundaries, and along Cockthorne lane the route of the modern road coincided with a stretch of the Roman road, Ermine Street. The drainage works exposed deposits relating to Ermine Street comprising a layer of compacted gravel laid directly onto the original ground surface and two sherds of Romano-British greyware, dating from the 2nd century AD, were recovered from along the west side of the Roman road. No other archaeological deposits or features were identified during the watching brief. [AIP] |
