Full Description
2016: A single archaeological evaluation trench revealed two ditches and a pit of Roman date. One of the ditches that appears to be a continuation of a feature from MNL 637 located just to the north and seems to form a substantial boundary. It is likely that this feature marks the edge of the known Roman settlement in the area (see MNL 193 and MNL 637) (S1).
