Full Description
<1> Archaeological Research Services Ltd, 2013, St Martin's Lodge, Chester, Cheshire Archaeological Excavation and Watching Brief, R3503 (Client Report). SCH7203.
Evidence of a possible road surface was encountered during archaeological investigations at St Martin's Lodge in 2013. Located in the canabae legionis, this area is currently poorly understood with limited archaeological remains discovered from a small number of sites.
The evidence comprised a clay deposit [310] sealing a mid second century drain (CHER 8653). The evidence for this feature is limited, however, it may represent a road agger.
