More information : [Marginal' In Sept '60 a fragment of a Roman altar was
noticed built into a garden wall in the modern village of Wroxeter.
A photograph and squeeze was sent to Mr. R.P. Wright who comments
that no letters are now visible for the first line and the second
line contains the letters ARA M: the third D(ONO) D(IDIT) and the
fourth DEO V..
When the site was visited in Sept '62 to arrange for the transfer
it was discovered that a house had been built on the site and the
section of the wall had been removed. Fortunately the altar fragment
was found, but in two pieces and with other damage, The pieces are
now in the University Training School on the Baths Site. (1)
