Abstract:		 Salvage recording was carried out during the excavation of twelve trenches for the erection of overhead power lines by the Midlands Electricity Board. Excavations in the area during the 1950s revealed a Roman road along with occupation and demolition layers representing a roadside structure. These layers were dated from the 2nd to the 4th centuries. The salvage recording noted the presence of a dark layer in one of the trenches, and a compact layer of iron slag in two of the southern trenches. These deposits are interpreted as representing the surface of the Roman road and a buried occupation layer associated with the deposits noted during the 1950s excavations.[AIP]
