Abstract: |
The evaluation consisted of 19 trenches located within the footprints of the proposed new housing blocks. A metalled surface was exposed with a north-south orientated ditch situated on each side. Whilst no finds were recovered during the excavation of this trench, the style of construction, together with the proximity and general orientation of the sites of Roman date in the area strongly suggest this feature to be of part of a Roman road. None of the trenches showed any evidence for Roman road side activity and no archaeological cut features pre-dating the 19th century were encountered on site. A large 19th century rubbish pit was located in the central area of the site and deposits across the side dated to the mid/late 20th century area were contemporary with the development of the Beaumont Road Estate.
