Abstract:
The Music Centre site revealed evidence of occupation, dating from the Early/Middle Iron Age to the Roman period. Area A contained a large clay pit to the south of the site, which yielded securely dated Roman pottery. A residual sherd of pre-Belgic pottery was also recovered from this pit. A layer of rammed limestone was interpreted as the remains of a floor surface to the south of the site. The area was bounded by a cut on the east side, interpreted as a north/south orientated foundation trench. The floor surface yielded a Roman hobnail, Romano British pottery and part of an iron brooch. The robber trench yielded Romano-British pottery and a hobnail. Area B revealed a large northeast/southwest orientated ditch cut. The fill yielded sherds of a number of late Belgic vessels within a securely dateable context, representing primary deposition. This feature was interpreted as a boundary ditch, the line of which could be projected under the existing school gymnasium building. Phase 2, the tennis courts replacement site, and Phase 3, the classroom extension site, yielded no archaeological features. [Au(adp)]
