Full Description

{1} Probable Romano-British buildings (Morphed Aerial Archaeology Interpretation). Crop/soilmark: Unconfirmed overlay.

{2} The road system comprises mainly sinuous roads, at least partly as a result of the presence of a pre-existing road network. However, to the immediate north-west of the public open space, P, two linear minor roads define the northern and western sides of a rectangular plot, c55m long by c35m wide, which sits in the angle of the roads leading
to the putative western and southern gateways. This plot is therefore likely to be a creation within the plan of the walled town, and it appears to contain a row of five or six stone buildings.
