2017 Geophys on the Kiln Field showed two large anomalies amongst the ditches and post holes that turned out to be our two Roman pottery kilns. This field has been excavated each year, revealing more features including a corn drying kiln.
The first image shows the excavations that have taken place around the two kilns since we started in 2016.
2022 saw an L-shaped excavation, outlined in red in the second image, to complete the area around the Kilns in preparation for a final report. However, the discovery of a possible kiln/oven on the very edge of the west side means further excavation is needed.

2022 saw us return to the Kitchen Garden determined to discover if this really held evidence of a Roman building. We were not disappointed.
We recovered further roof, floor, flue and box tile, pieces of lead piping, Roman pottery, opus signinum and quern stone.
On the final day, confirmation was given. We had discovered a channelled hypocaust. We really do have a Roman building here at Woodgate, the extent of which will be for future discoveries, but our dreams have been fulfilled.

2017 saw the first dig on this side of the lake. The area was going to be huge, but as the first part uncovered revealed so many features, only about a quarter was excavated. Ditches, postholes and ladder settlements were uncovered, but relatively few finds.
One feature was a complete circle that had burnt matter in as it was being dug. When dug completely, it revealed nothing at all!

An enormous amount of pottery was discovered in this area of the dig. On the last day in 2018, many pieces from one large 12th century pot, including the handle, were found and many can be fitted together.
Have we found all the pieces? Time will tell.

Even when it is wet, people turn up, there is always something to do. It might be digging under cover, sieving in the showers, or simply sitting down for a chat and a cuppa.

2019 saw another area excavated, opening up towards the south wall of the garden. We still search for further evidence of the building we know is here, but this must wait for another year!

In 2018, digging stopped two days early as we found a tiled floor surface, made up of fragments of CBM, which needed careful recording.
Great excitement, but not enough time to look any further.

Most of our coins have been found by using a metal detector or through the sieving process. 2018 saw an eagle-eyed digger find one while digging a Roman post hole.
We have coins spanning the whole Roman period of occupation. This one depicts Magnentius 350-353AD.

One of the floor tile pieces found contained an animal print, a pine marten, the first found in situ. The rest of our examples are from fragments removed during digging.
All prints are looked at by our archaeologist and Natural History expert Julie Curl, of Sylvanus Services. Her expertise has given us an insight into the creatures roaming around Woodgate nearly 2000 years ago and include more than 20 different species. Pine marten and two species of European wild cats have been identified as well as shrew, otter and fox. Her reports are causing great interest in an area rarely covered.

The panorama was taken in the spring of 2018 when the water in the lake was high.
During the summer of that year, so little rain had fallen that the lake level had gone down a great deal, although not as low as 1991 when fish were removed to save them!
Images taken by Peter’s father in 1991 show that the island is easily accessible. To the right of the island there is still deep water where the natural springs are.

Various bones were recovered, including nearly all of a peacock. No evidence of butchery, this bird was owned by whoever lived in our building. A large quantity of tile, pottery and quern stone uncovered, too.

Every penny we make goes to the project, no-one is paid. Even Sable the dog is a Friend, (she’s also very good at digging).

Wherever digging took place, a feature was found, it was difficult not to walk on something! It wasn’t, though, until the third week, that its secrets began to appear. Below a lot of areas showing signs of burning, and the discovery of our first piece of Saxon pottery, there is evidence of a large building.

2019 saw the excavation extended to include the Track Way. The continuation of ditches was found, but finds were few as the track was neared. A charcoal burning pit was found, the first we have discovered. The South Side is predominantly Medieval, 11/12th century, with some evidence of Iron Age.

2021 saw two evaluation trenches excavated, Trench 1 running north-south towards the end of the lake and Trench 2 further to the west.

A shallow Roman pit was excavated and we found two Bronze Age pits underneath. In this we found a lovely piece of Bronze Age pottery, our earliest pottery find.

Following the evidence of the first three years, the continuation of ditches running north/south and east/west, were unearthed and excavated fully. Material from the two kilns excavated in Year 1 which lay just west of the excavation were found. Other exciting finds, included a key, knife and shears, and two well preserved Constantius II coins.

In 2016 a small excavation further west uncovered part of a track way. Its continuation was excavated in 2019, although there is uncertainly whether Iron Age or Roman. Buried underneath were the bones of a pony which had died of old age. Unusually, horse shoes were found as well and, on x-ray, were dated to around 1450.

While cleaning up for recording, an enormous post hole was discovered which, on further examination, goes down 6 feet and is 12 inches in diameter indicating a substantial building.

2019 saw the discovery of a corn drying kiln. Post holes to the south gave evidence of a fence structure against the prevailing wind. We hope soil samples taken will eventually tell us what was being dried.

A north/south trench was dug just into the East field and further evidence of the Kiln field ditches were discovered. Few finds, but cow bones were found in one area and the base of a mortaria bowl. Geophysics has shown up relatively little on this field and we had to dig our way down to the evidence.

Site of Kiln One


This kiln was fully excavated over 2017/17. 1m in diameter, it had a central pedestal and kiln bars radiating out. Evidence of the use of withies during the firing process has been found in the kiln material. Samples were taken for archaeo-magnetic dating, but the results were inconculsive. We believe it to have been used around 150 - 250AD.

Site of Kiln Two


This kiln has proved to be massive, over 2m in diameter, and probably the largest found in the country. It has a perforated floor which has been repaired with pot, tile and clay. The builder's finger marks can clearly be seen in it. At some point it had collapsed and an inner wall was added, changing its shape from round to oval. Full excavation was stopped in case of further collapse. The flue and rake pit are enormous. An amazing find.

Our specially designed sieves mean several people can be involved in looking at the soil coming from the digging area. They are a great opportunity to laugh and chat with others. Apart from pieces of pottery and tile, keen-eyed sievers have found coins and beautiful small flint arrowheads.
