Archaeology Notes

NO45SE 311 c. 4500 5487 to c. 4510 5499

NO c.4500 5487 to NO c. 4510 5499 It is speculated that a more probable line of the Roman Road would appear to the S of the line speculated by Crawford (1949) (at NO35SE 68, NO35NE 73 and NO45NW 42).

This possible alignment is based on the projection of the line of the last stretch of the road between the two Flavian sites of Cardean (NO24NE 12) and Finavon (NO45NE 21) (ES).

There is no trace of the road on the direct route between Cardean and Finavon (JP).

Information from OS (ES) July 1973;

Visited by OS (JP) June 1975.
