Monument record TR 36 SW 489 - Corn drier (Building 2) - Minster Roman Villa
Summary
During excavations at Minster Roman Villa in 1996, 1997 and again in 2001, a small building was seen which appeared to have been butted onto its outside face of the villa enclosure wall, some 6m south of the north-west comer. This has been designated Building 2 and appears to represent a rectangular corn-drier of a type known from other Romano-British rural sites. (location accurate to the nearest 1m based on available information)
