Aldborough Roman Town Project 2021 Interim Report
Abstract
Excavation was carried out between the 27th August –26th September 2021 as part of the Aldborough Roman Town Project (University of Cambridge) close to the North Gate of Isurium Brigantum. A trench covering an area of 166m² was excavated, to continue work begun in 2019 that had revealed part of the Roman street (EW1), late and post-Roman buildings and a blacksmith’s workshop. The aim of the work was to characterise the development of the town, in particular finding evidence for early and late activity, as well as how this area of the town was used in relation to buildings on the geophysics and the warehouse excavated in 2018.
