Findspot - Roman pottery, tile & tessera
Findspot - various finds of Roman date, including fragments of pottery, tile and tessera, were found in the north west area of Copston Magna.
1 Some of the tile in the area of the possible Roman building (PRN 4862) appears to be Roman and comb decorated sherds occur. A single grey ware sherd was also found.
2 Fieldwalking carried out in February 1996 revealed a concentrated scatter of Roman pottery and building material including box flue tile and tessera.
3 Geophysical survey in 1996 revealed anomalies which could represent a building or other structure. This feature was found in the same part of the field as the material described in ref 2.
4 Finds made by metal detectors in 1996: Ornamental strip, Romano-British decoration. Bracelet. It has undergone some distortion in the ground. One side is decorated with a pair of knurled grooved and probably other rather worn designs.
