Ian Miller

Reports various Roman features. The earliest evidence (c. AD70s) of activity were two rows of stakeholes (northwest--southeast) and an oval-shaped deposit of fired clay overlain by charcoal, clearly the result of a high temperature process and perhaps a hearth. Two parallel rows of postholes, representing two structures separated by a metalled surface were provisionally dated to the second century AD. The easternmost building contained blacksmithing tools indicating secondary ironworking, and appears to have been destroyed by fire. A timber post structure was later built over the metalled alley.
