Full Description
Six Romano-British rim sherds, possibly of 4th century date and part of a Romano-British glass bottle found in Willoughby. It is possibly the same site as recorded by Tatham (PRN41996). {1}{2}
Enlosures are visible as cropmarks on Google maps to the west of disused GNR branch line to Sutton, to the north-west of Willoughby junction. These are probably field systems associated with the Roman settlement recorded by Tatham in 1902. The focus of the Roman site may perhaps be to the east by the disused railway line. {3}
