The proposed development area is located on the south-western boundary of the settlement of Cheslyn Hay, on the east side of the Wolverhampton Road (B4156), centred on NGR SJ 9710 0640 and comprises a site currently used as a quarry. The proposed development area covers 25.7ha. Most of the proposed development area, with the exception of a field immediately south of the existing cemetery on Wolverhampton Road, has an extant planning permission for minerals use. The effects of both schemes on archaeology are considered in this report. There is little evidence for prehistoric or Roman activity within or near the proposed development area. The proposed development area is located approximately 2 kilometres south of the alignment of Watling Street Roman road. There is, however, no evidence for associated Roman activity in the area. A moated site, now destroyed and located about 150 metres west of the proposed development area, is the only evidence for medieval activity within or near the proposed development area. There has clearly been coal working within the proposed development area. The evidence indicates that this was probably of post medieval date. However, the entire proposed development area, with the exception of a field immediately south of the cemetery, measuring about 2ha, and a small area north of what was Campions Wood itself, to be retained as open space, has been quarried away. It is considered; therefore that the potential for the proposed development to impact upon archaeological remains of any date or type is negligible. Two historic features survive just within or immediately adjacent to the edge of the proposed development area. These are part of the line of Pinfold Lane and the line of the Wyrely Bank branch of the Wyrely and Essington Canal. The features will be preserved in situ by the proposed development The study has revealed that no statutory designated sites (e.g. Scheduled Monuments, Listed Buildings) are present within the application site. The closest designated site is numbers 14-16 Dundalk Road, listed at Grade II, located about 450 metres from the proposed development area. No statutorily designated or locally listed feature, or it’s setting, will be affected by the proposed development. Given that the proposed development area in general has a low potential for the survival of significant archaeological remains, and that the site has been largely quarried away, thus removing any archaeology, it is recommended that no further work be carried out with regard to archaeology in connection with proposed development at this site.

In Britain, as in their other provinces, the Romans constructed a comprehensive network of paved trunk roads (i.e. surfaced highways) during their nearly four centuries of occupation (43 - 410 AD). This article focuses on the ca. 2,000 mi (3,200 km) of Roman roads in Britain shown on the Ordnance Survey's Map of Roman Britain.[1] This contains the most accurate and up-to-date layout of certain and probable routes that is readily available to the general public. The pre-Roman Britons used mostly unpaved trackways for their communications, including very ancient ones running along elevated ridges of hills, such as the South Downs Way, now a public long-distance footpath.

  • Roman Roads in Britain
    ROMAN ROADS IN BRITAIN c < t < r c ROMAN ROADS IN BRITAIN BY THE LATE THOMAS CODRINGTON M, INST.C. E., F. G S. fFITH LARGE CHART OF THE ROMAN ROADS AND SMALL MAPS IN THE TEXT REPRINT OF THIRD EDITION LONDON SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING CHRISTIAN KNOWLEDGE NEW YORK: THE MACMILLAN COMPANY 1919 . • r r 11 'X/^i-r * ' Ci First Edition^ 1903 Second Edition, Revised, 1905 Tliird Edition, Revised, 1918 (.Reprint), 19 „ ,, 19 PREFACE The following attempt to describe the Roman roads of Britain originated in observations made in all parts of the country as opportunities presented themselves to me from time to time. On turning to other sources of information, the curious fact appeared that for a century past the litera- ture of the subject has been widely influenced by the spurious Itinerary attributed to Richard of Cirencester. Though that was long ago shown to be a forgery, statements derived from it, and suppositions founded upon them, are continually repeated, casting suspicion sometimes unde- served on accounts which prove to be otherwise accurate. A wide publicity, and some semblance of authority, have been given to imaginary roads and stations by the new Ordnance maps. Those who early in the last century, under the influence of the new Itinerary, traced the Roman roads, unfortunately left but scanty accounts of the remains which came under their notice, many of which have since been destroyed or covered up in the making of modern roads; and with the evidence now available few Roman roads can be traced continuously. The gaps can often be filled with reasonable certainty, but more often the precise course is doubtful, and the entire course of some roads connecting known stations of the Itinerary of Antonine can only be guessed at.

  • Map 8 Britannia Superior Compiled by A.S
    Map 8 Britannia Superior Compiled by A.S. Esmonde-Cleary, 1996 with the assistance of R. Warner (Ireland) Introduction Britain has a long tradition of antiquarian and archaeological investigation and recording of its Roman past, reaching back to figures such as Leland in the sixteenth century. In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries the classically-educated aristocracy and gentry of a major imperial and military power naturally felt an affinity with the evidence for Rome’s presence in Britain. In the twentieth century, the development of archaeology as a discipline in its own right reinforced this interest in the Roman period, resulting in intense survey and excavation on Roman sites and commensurate work on artifacts and other remains. The cartographer is therefore spoiled for choice, and must determine the objectives of a map with care so as to know what to include and what to omit, and on what grounds. British archaeology already has a long tradition of systematization, sometimes based on regions as in the work of the Royal Commissions on (Ancient and) Historic Monuments for England (Scotland and Wales), but also on types of site or monument. Consequently, there are available compendia by Rivet (1979) on the ancient evidence for geography and toponymy; Wacher (1995) on the major towns; Burnham (1990) on the “small towns”; Margary (1973) on the roads that linked them; and Scott (1993) on villas. These works give a series of internally consistent catalogs of the major types of site. Maps of Roman Britain conventionally show the island with its modern coastline, but it is clear that there have been extensive changes since antiquity, and that the conventional approach risks understating the differences between the ancient and the modern.

  • Engleton Roman Villa, Brewood
    REPORT ON THE ROMAN VILLA AT ENGLETON, NEAR BREWOOD. BY DIANA ASHCROFT. D uring the summer of 1937 the excavation of the Roman Villa at Engleton was undertaken by the Wolverhampton Archaeo­ logical Society, with the hope that it might prove to be the posting station on the Watling Street mentioned in the 2nd Iter of the Antonine Iterinaries under the name of Penno- cruciurn. For many years archaeologists have been searching, as yet vainly, for this site which is known to be in the neighbour­ hood. Therefore when in March, 1937 Miss Dunkley notified the Wolverhampton Archaeological Society that a man at work in a gravel quarry, little more than a quarter of a mile distant from the Watling Street, had had a narrow escape from being buried beneath a chunk of fallen masonry, they naturally hoped that Pennocrucium had at last been located. Mr. Gerald Mander, F.S.A., the President of the Society, at once hastened to the spot and identified the remains as Roman by means of the quantities of lozenge shaped roofing tiles that were lying about. He and his committee thereupon entered into negotiations for the lease of the land with Mr. R. M. Walley, on whose property the quarry was situated and secured, at the suggestion of Sir Charles Marston, F.S.A., the collaboration of Miss Kathleen Kenyon, F.S.A., in the excavation of the site, it was a fortunate fact that although Miss Kenyon was already fully occupied, it did not deter her from promising to pay a weekly visit to the excavations to superintend the work, which was begun on August 16th and continued until October 6th.

  • Discovered Upon Morr~Dge and Wever Hills, in That Alpine Region
    24 HISTORY OF discovered upon Morr~dge and Wever Hills, in that alpine region which forms the northern part of the county between Doveclale, and the towns of Leek and Cheadle, where the rocky summits, in many places, appear to the distant observer like ruined fortresses ; and no doubt some of them afforded shelter and defence to the Aborigines, after they had been driven from the more level and fertile parts of the country by those "lords of the universe," the Roman soldiers. RoMAN ANTIQUITIES. The Romans, like a conqueror of modern times, bestowed considerable attention on their public roads, and at the distance of fourteen ce~turies we can still trace in legible characters the labours of the " mistress of the world." The great RoMAN RoAns, called Watling-street and Icknield­ street, pass through Staffordshire. The fonner intersected the whole kingdom, from Rutupia, in Kent, to Northumber­ land ; and branching from it in various directions are traces of many Vicinal Ways. It enters this county from 'Varwickshire, near Fazcley, and pursuing a westward course toWecford, Wall,~ Muckley Corner, Calf Heath, Stretton, and Weston~under­ Lizard, it enters Shropshire, about a mile south of Sheriff Hales. The Icknield-street enters Staffordshire at Hockley Brook, near Birmingham, and, passing Handsworth, Little Aston, and Shen­ stone, it crosses 'Vatlin!!-street a little to the east of Wall; whence it pursues a course north by east to Streethay, "\Vichnor, Branstone, and Stretton, near Burton-upon-Trent, to the river Dove, where it enters Derbyshire. It is a convex and well formed road, and many long length& of it are perfectly rectilinear.

  • The Tribes of Wales Reconsidered1, by E.W.Williams
    J.E.Lloyd and his intellectual legacy; the tribes of Wales reconsidered1, by E.W.Williams In an earlier article, the present author considered the manner in which the racial model of history developed by the Oxford school of Germanist historians in relation to England was adopted by J. E. Lloyd and applied to Wales. This article is focused on the way in which that racial model was employed by Lloyd in his analysis of the tribes of Wales and contributed to the establishment of a widely accepted view of the location of those tribal territories. The major challenges that emerged to this facet of his work in the period to 1939 are then outlined. Subsequently, the manner in which Lloyd’s historical work influenced Welsh archaeology is delineated, before considering the erosion of his hypothesis within that field in the period through to 2010. A number of longstanding archaeological perspectives which diverged from the orthodox historical view developed by Lloyd are then outlined. These provide a basis for a significantly different concept of the territories accorded to the tribes of Wales. The implications of this alternative view of the tribal structure of Wales with regard to both the Roman conquest and the subsequent integration of the western tribes into the Roman civil system are then briefly considered. The historian, J.E.Lloyd is commonly regarded as having established the foundations of modern Welsh History.2 In an earlier article, this author drew attention to key weaknesses in his analysis and highlighted the fact that in 1939 Lloyd had acknowledged that his earlier hypothesis regarding the formation of pre-Roman Wales could not be sustained.3 Accordingly, in the third edition of his A History of Wales, he replaced the initial three chapters of his first and second editions with a very different introduction.4 One of the aspects which led to Lloyd’s decision to establish new foundations for his work lay in the inadequacies of his analysis of the tribal structure of pre-Roman Wales.
