Abstract: |
Six trenches were excavated, all within the Roman wall fort of Drumburgh. The trenches varied in size, from 1m x 1m to 4m x 1.5m. Four trenches were excavated along the line of a new service trench, in these the only significant deposits were probable 14th century deposits from an ill-defined cut feature (no significant Roman deposits were recorded in trenches one-four). In trenches five and six, excavated to explore the archaeological potential for a proposed extension, the probable line of the wall ditch and the position of the berm, between the wall and the ditch was located. These remains had been truncated, and lay only 0.10m below the present ground surface. [Au(adp)] |
