Romano-British Features at 102 Tiddingon Rd

1 Foundation trenches for an extension were observed at in Tiddington Rd on site in the centre of the Roman settlement previously excavated in 1937-8. Along the south and east trenches there were undisturbed Romano-British features sealed beneath a possible gravel surface. To the north and west there was a large hollow, possibly Roman but probably part of the 1937-8 trench. One middle Iron Age sherd was recovered but most of the pottery dated from the early 2nd to later 4th centuries. Like that from the 1937-8 excavations it included a high proportion of fine wares suggesting that this area was one of the wealthiest parts of the site.
