Abstract:
Features located included ditches, pits, postholes and a corn dryer or malting oven. Roman pottery of 1st to 3rd century date was recovered from many features, most notably from the major northern boundary ditch, which ran from east to west. This feature had pottery (including rare Roman glazed ware), tile, building material, bone and glass scattered through the fills. No buildings were identified during the excavation, however the pottery assemblage indicates nearby domestic activity. The site may have had a functional connection with other Roman settlement, part of a possible villa estate, found just to the southeast across Tunbridge Lane in 2000. There is evidence for the destruction by fire and subsequent demolition of a nearby Roman building, probably in the mid 3rd century.
