ID:SDV23606
Title:A Romano-British Building at Topsham
Originator:Morris, P. + Montague, L. A. D. + Goodchild, R.
Date:1937-1947
Summary:At the north east end of the building were two medium sized ovens. Lack of pottery wasters or fragments of metal or slags suggests probable use of the building as a bakery. Just outside the north east wall of the building was a midden. Finds included building materials (slates and tiles), pottery, samian and a number of querns. Finds suggest a date range from cAD250 to the end of the Constantinian period. The building seems to have fallen into decay.
