Abstract:
The geophysical survey was successful in providing not only a general footprint of the mansio but also in identifying an extensive complex of archaeological features extending south of the enclosure. While the actual wall foundations associated with the mansio are only partly visible in the data, this has still permitted the general layout of the structure to be identified. The shallow brick foundations, particularly in the eastern part of the mansio, can be determined more readily than those in the west and it is possible to see individual rooms. In the northern half of the enclosure, close to the river, there are very strong anomalies. It is unclear whether these are associated with a bath-house, Winbolt's excavations or modern disturbance connected with the construction of the road / bridge. While the eastern and southern defences of the enclosure are visible in the magnetic data, the western defences are less clear and unfortunately it is not possible to ascertain whether there is a bank and ditch to the north. A series of pits, ditched enclosures and trackways is visible extending some 300m south of the enclosure; the results indicate the presence of an extensive settlement outside the mansio complex.
