Abstract: |
Excavations to the south-east of Burgh-by-Sands, at Amberfield, revealed fourteen ditches and several discrete features, including a tanning pit and a well. Three broad phases of activity could be discerned based on stratigraphic and artefactual evidence, although the remains and finds may reflect piecemeal development over a period of roughly 100 years. The features are interpreted as part of a wider Roman field system and trackways, containing elements of small-scale industrial and domestic activity dating from between the early to mid 2nd century AD and the first half of the 3rd century AD. |
