Abstract:		 The earliest archaeological structure identified was the western edge of the Foss Way, although occasional sherds of prehistoric pottery were recovered from a suspected buried soil horizon beneath it. However, the alignment of the ditches at the western end of Zone 2 and the evidence of some 2nd Century AD re-cutting raised the possibility of a surviving pre-Roman field system. The construction of the Fosse Way presumably dated from the mid-40s AD by the Roman army, soon after the conquest of AD 43. [Au(adp)]
