Full Description
Site 4 - (field 6, a mound with a possible building beneath it). Trial trenches located an occupational level beneath the mound of red clay. The level was Ro in date and appeared to be associated with timber structures. No solid stuctural evidence was found. A date between Flavian and Antonine was suggested by the pottery. (1)
Neither plans nor finds from this site are available now. (2)
Roman pottery, building debris, and coins were found at Ratcliffe on Soar. Scott lists the site in her gazetteer on Roman villas (3)(5)
