Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation comprising a rapid desktop assessment, trial trenching programme and watching brief was undertaken during the repair of a collapsed sewer within Aldborough. Aldborough lay on top of the Scheduled Ancient Monument of Isurium (North Yorks SAM No. 436). Archaeological remains encountered ranged in date. A large assemblage of Roman tesserae were revealed which suggested a mosaic floor, as well as sherds of non-decorated Samian ware. The corner of a possible Roman/medieval building was also revealed but as it was not affected by the work it was not investigated. Medieval pottery was revealed, but no features from this date. Post-medieval remains were also encountered including a brick lined culvert still in working order. [AIP] |
