Monument record TR 15 NE 1512 - Roman road metalling, St. John's Hospital, Northgate

Summary

A gravel filled hollow, between 2.1m-1.7m below the modern surface, just entered within the SW half of this face and may have represented Roman road metallings within a flanking ditch or hollow way. Above this lay several cobbled and gravel surfaces three of which, at about 1m, 0.45m and 0.3m below the current road, appeared to contain much crushed mortar.
