Description

A watching brief was carried out at the Territorial Army Centre in January 2001, during ground works for a new building and car park. All the material excavated by the contractor consisted of modern made-up ground. Natural ground was not reached except in the northern area where a modern Army trench was dug out and concrete foundations were exposed. One fragment of Roman tile and one piece of Roman grey ware pottery were the only finds. <1>
