Full Description
The site of the Lord Raglan Hotel, 28 Frodsham Street, 'proved rich in material finds', but most of them were retained by the contractor, including a bronze finger-ring, two coins and a fair amount of pottery, including a Samian ware bowl stamped CELS M, and a rim fragment of hammer-head type mortarium (dated to the third or fourth century) (1). The location of the Lord Raglan Hotel was determined from 1:500 first edition map 1875 in CCR.
