Abstract: |
A pilot survey in the land surrounding the major Romano-British pottery kiln sites in the Islands Thorns Inclosure was commissioned with a view to improving the current understanding of their extent and complexity. The work was carried out across an area amounting to some 70 ha and consisted of a measured earthwork survey and a search of all accessible ground disturbances in order to identify archaeological sites not visible as earthworks. The results of the pilot survey greatly extended the number and range of recorded sites. This had added ample evidence for ancillary structures, such as terraces, clay pits, holloways, as well as evidence for agricultural land-use. Together these findings provided a much more coherent picture of the Romano-British pottery industry and its contemporary setting. [Au(abr)] |
