Abstract: |
Border Archaeology Ltd.'s excavation was undertaken on behalf of the Mortimer Medical Practice and related to the site of a new surgery building and associated landscaping and ancillary works, including provision for pedestrian and vehicular access. The development lies on the western flank of the Roman road (represented by the present A4113 (High Street)) extending north from the Roman fortified vicus (civilian settlement) at Leintwardine (Bravonium) towards Wroxeter (Viroconium). A previous programme of archaeological field evaluation undertaken by Border Archaeology in 2009 revealed a series of cut features close to the line of the road, representing two phases of Romano-British activity separated by a period of abandonment. The excavation phase has produced results of considerable importance confirming the presence in this part of Leintwardine of at least three phases of Roman activity representing a fairly short period of occupation in the later 1st -mid-2nd century AD. |
