Description
Site code: TRR14. A programme of archaeological observation, investigation and recording was undertaken in advance of the construction of a new house on land adjacent to 27 Richmond Road, Towcester, Northamptonshire. A cobbled surface was observed, likely forming the surface of a Roman road aligned east-north-east to west-south-west and dating to between the late 1st and 3rd centuries, linking up to Alchester Road. Parallel to this was a ditch 3m to the south, likely forming part of the road's drainage system. Information from OASIS Online Form.
