Summary |
A large area of pottery dating to the Roman period was discovered whilst field walking. It probably indicates the site of a Roman settlement, possibly a rural farmstead. The pottery was found 500m west of Scotland Wood, Billesley. The agricultural settlement was subsequently evaluated and excavated, revealing a series of stone buildings, associated with at least two corndriers. |
