Notes on the discovery of a Roman Burial at Radnage, Bucks
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 08 January 2012
Extract
The manner of discovering the objects found was unusual, and their presence quite unlooked for. It was as follows. A carriage drive leading to a modern house was being repaired during the early days of January of the present year (1923). One of the men employed on the work brought up the neck of an earthenware pitcher on the point of his pick, which upon examination suggested Roman origin. The remainder of the pitcher was unearthed, and further investigations made. The ground was of stiff clay mixed with flints, and much blackened with an admixture of charcoal. Digging was difficult as the weather was very wet at the time and water flowed freely into the excavation.
