North Yorkshire excavation site reveals secrets of Roman settlement

The Hypocaust system and some large foundations THE final report on archaeological digs carried out on stretch of motorway in North Yorkshire has been released. The report, published by Highways England, consists of discoveries found on the A1 from Leeming to Barton, during a four-year archaeologist excavation. The finds are part of the Roman town of Cataractonium, which started in the AD70s, and tells of how people used the area over a period of 4,500 years. Archaeologists began a major programme of fieldwork in 2013 which lasted for four years and the investigated areas are known as south to north, Fort Bridge, Agricola Bridge and Brompton East and West.

High Quality Buildings on an Old Straight Track When the  Catterick bypass was being built in the 1950s road workers uncovered the remains of an inn with a bathroom. Archaeologists discovered wide cobble-and-clay wall foundations and they followed them to the remains of the north gate house, which subsequently led them to the stone bridge that allowed Dere Street to cross the River Swale. With over 62,000 artifacts having now been revealed, the latest study demonstrated the settlement “was much more than a stopping point, with high-quality buildings continuing well into the 4th century,” according to the government press release.
