Monument record TR 15 NW 2155 - Roman metalled surface, Friars Car Park, Best Lane
Summary
The excavation revealed post-Medieval tanning vats below which was preserved a Roman metalled surface sloping towards the river to the west. Close to the river wooden stakes had been driven into this surface and a dark silt layer overlaying the surface may represent 'dark earth' following a post Roman abandonment period.
