Description

In advance of redevelopment of the site around St Martin's Lodge, an archaeological evaluation was carried out in October 2011. There was a good potential for modern, medieval and Roman archaeology in the area. The evaluation recorded evidence of nineteenth century features including a summerhouse, brick outbuildings and cobbled surfaces. Evidence of Roman activity were also recorded comprising the remains of a demolished Roman structure and an associated surface and ditch to the north and east.
