Monument record TR 15 NW 244 - Iron Age, Roman, Medieval finds
Summary
Excavations in 1983 revealed a mid 1st century ditch and a clay quarry. Flavian features included rubbish pits and in the early 2nd century a major NE to SW street was laid out. In the 2nd century a few rubbish pits were dug. The area remained as open ground until a masonry building was constructed in the late 4th century. The line of this wall may have been visible in the Medieval period as rubbish pits and cess pits are arranged on its south side.
