Abstract

In January 2001 OA carried out a field evaluation within the grounds of the Nuffield Orthopaedic Hospital. Four trenches were excavated but revealed very little of archaeological significance. A single sherd of Roman pottery, dating from the 2nd century AD was retrieved from a possible buried ploughsoil in Trench 4. A small pit or post hole, of unknown date, was also revealed in Trench 4. The other trenches proved to be archaeologically sterile.
