  1. Hello all, just stumbled across this site and I've had a general troll around. It seems like a good place to post something I've found - I hope it is of interest. As part of an archaeological dig planned for the summer, I've been tasked with researching the Roman Road leading from Calleva (Silchester) to Old Sarum (Salisbury). (This is a very amateur capacity, my main job was to check O/S records to see how the route found itself on modern maps) Since I live near the supposed route of the Roman road, I attempted to follow the route. From reading several books on the subject I was drawn to an agger that is partially visible in a field. I had a little explore and very close to this agger, and in-line with the O/S marked route, I found a few things of interest. Namely, what appears to be a structure of some kind. This follows the angle of the agger in the nearby field. There is also a number of rocks, and general material which from my untrained eyes could either be chunks of Roman road or...the result of modern fly-tipping. I've taken a number of photographs of the general area in question, and a few interesting item that were there. Superfluous amounts of photographs await via the link below. The photographs are far from visually appealing, but hopefully helpful in the process of identifying what this all is. Any help or views would be very appreciated! View photographs
