Stephen Cracknell
et 14 al
1 - 62
Two main sites were investigated. Tibbet's Close had stratified Iron Age remains, late 2nd century stone and timber domestic buildings, and a med malting or drying oven. No 6 Birch Abbey contained extramural occupation. From the six other sites reported come some ?military objects from residual contexts, some charred asparagus seeds, and animal bones suggesting that calf meat and wool production were unimportant in these areas of the town.

On-the Coulters Garage site, Priory Road, a large timber ?granary had been built in later 2nd century on a formerly marshy site; quantities of burnt grain etc were recovered. A century or more later a substantial stone building followed: a case is made out for interpreting the site as an official collection and storage point for annona militaris. It was demolished and robbed in ?later 4th. Environmental work indicated the landscape changes.
