Monument Number 1154631
Hob Uid:
1154631
Location :
Lincolnshire
West Lindsey
Goltho
Grid Ref :
TF1160077400
Summary :
Traces of Romano-British settlement discovered during excavations at Goltho during the early 1970s. Evidence comprised three circular houses ranging between 8.7 and 12 metres in diameter, surrounded by a palisade trench, and occupation appears to have spanned circa 50 AD to 200 AD. A further spread of artefactual and structural debris suggested that there may have been a substantial building in the immediate vicinity during the 3rd and 4th centuries AD. Finds include pottery, brooches, coins, glass beads, a spindle whorl and quernstones. Iron Age pottery is referred to in the final excavation report but is not described. In her gazetteer of Roman villas, Scott features the Goltho site, presumably because of the implied presence of a substantial building of 3rd/4th century date. For the Saxon and Medieval structures at Goltho see TF 17 NW 12.
