Notes about this historic site
1 Small trial excavations in 1982 (AL8) in advance of factory/warehouse development established the presence of Roman gravel surfaces, probably C1 or C2 in date, a possible beam slot and post hole. A watching brief in May 1983 confirmed the presence of gravel surfaces but produced no more evidence of the possible timber buildings.
2 Listed as site no 74.
3 Evaluated as part of the Stratford Road Redevelopment in 1989.
4 Noted in Britannia (1983).
5 Brief for 4 above.
