PRN 86912 - Ffrith, Roman Road

A metalled surface uncovered during evaluation by Earthworks Archaeology in 2000. Runs parallel to modern B5101. Character of metalling, together with stratigraphic level, suggest surface could be possibly represent a Roman road which ran south from the settlement. A buckle of post medieval date was recovered from the top of this surface however. (Walker, W S, 2000b)
