Notes about this historic site

1 206 sherds (1482g) of Roman pottery, all dating to the first century AD, were recovered during the excavation of a single 3.8m by 2.0m trial trench. These may have been related to the period one (60-64 AD) occupation of the Roman fort to the north. These included Samian, greyware and courseware fabrics. No archaeological features were recorded. Trenches previously excavated to the north of the Lunt Cottages recorded period one occupation.
