Full Description

PRN 36537 An archaeological watching brief was undertaken during groundworks for an extension to an existing stockyard at the Concrete Products Factory, Manor Farm, Baston. The watching brief identified a number of intercutting drainage ditches running broadly east to west and dated to the 2nd century AD. The lack of occupation debris or evidence for structures suggests these were for land management, and are not indicative of settlement on the site. Their presence does, however, suggest that there was occupation activity in the Roman period in the vicinity {1} {2}
