Abstract: |
The excavation trench comprised an area that corresponded to those parts of the footprints of the proposed new structure. Two phases of activity, prehistoric and Roman, were discovered on the margins of a gravel island or levee, beneath alluvium. Prehistoric activity was evidenced by struck flints and pottery, including earlier Neolithic and later Bronze Age sherds. Some of the cut features may be of prehistoric date. The majority of the deposits comprised gullies and pits of early Roman date and stake holes that must be of Roman date. Some later Roman pottery was also found. [Au(adp)] |
