Find Spot record 8088/50 - Roman finds from Northgate Street

A small quantity of Roman building material including brick and ceramic tiles were recovered during archaeological investigations to the west of Northgate Street in the vicinity of the Roman Headquarters building. The finds were recovered from the base of a shallow trench that only identified modern features and are likely to be residual finds. Residual finds usually occur as a result of soil disturbance when the cutting of one feature removes finds from a lower and therefore earlier layer and re-deposits them closer to the surface.
