Full Description
NMR Imformation:
A Roman road-side settlement consisting of rectilinear ditched enclosures is visible as cropmarks on air photographs. The conjoined enclosures flank a Roman road (recorded in SE 75 SW 42) and are on average 70 metres by 20 metres, but some are sub-divided. The road-side settlement, centred at SE 7095 5466 and SE 7015 5450, borders almost the entire length of the road which lies west and east of the River Derwent. (1-3)
Air photographs taken in 2006 show a possible easterly extension to the road (SE 75 SW 42) and its associated settlement described above. The ditches, visible as cropmarks, are centred at SE 7162 5467. (4-5)
