Description

Birmingham University Field Archaeology Unit - Monograph Series 1

Written by Peter Ellis, Gwilym Hughes, Peter Leach, Catharine Mould and Jon Sterenberg

Describes the results of archaeological investigations at a number of sites undertaken by Birmingham University Field Archaeology Unit in 1996. New prehistoric sites were found along the length of the road corridor which, from Alconbury Hill to Norman Cross, coincides with Ermine Street. Here the major Roman road would have taken on additional importance where it skirted the fen edge. The book reports on a number of excavations along this section.
