Description

Conditions were particularly difficult during this watching brief but deep, waterlogged deposits containing early timbers were recovered. Analysis proved that these were Roman in date. Other Roman finds included pottery and a bone pin. This suggests that remains similar to those encountered during the recent excavations at Kingsley Fields are present in this part of the town too, adding to the evidence for a major Roman settlement at Nantwich on both sides of the river.
