Abstract: |
The evaluation was undertaken where previous work associated with the line of the M1-A1 link road had revealed evidence of Romano-British activity. Extensive trenching across the site revealed a fairly dense concentration of features within the western portion of the site, including ditches, gullies, pits and post holes. Also, a stone structure was revealed, in association with stratified deposits. At the eastern end of the site was a substantial curvilinear ditch. Sample excavation of a number of features produced artefacts including pottery of 3rd to 4th century date. The quantity and quality of finds allied with the rare survival of structural features, suggested a fairly high status Romano-British site. [Au] |
