Monument record TR 04 NW 19 - Romano-British building, Wye
Summary
A 4th century Romano-British building was excavated in 1972 after some tiles and pottery sherds were found in the area in the previous year. The building had evidence of later additions to its structure but was primarly dated on the basis of occupation debris found in a field drain (TR 04 NW 199). Amongst the finds removed from this drain were pottery sherds, bone, coins dating to AD 330-370 and other domestic items. Flint foundations of other walls were also found to the north and north-west and an unornamented gate-type bronze buckle and an iron dagger were found in association. There are no visible remains of this structure at the site.
