Description

This record is for the antiquarian excavation of Roman rubbish pits by Prof. McKenny Hughes. It is probably a duplicate record for EEX38427 and appears to be an early attempt at mapping the location of the finds just using the description given in<1>. See notes in EHER 4929 and EHER 13960 for more information on the true location of this event. The mapped polygon has been copied from an 'ECHR site' record (now deleted) and is also conjectural.
