  • GRANARY (Early Iron Age to 5th Century Roman - 700 BC? to 409 AD)

Description

In the course of construction of the Eton Rowing lake, this site will be lost under the return lake of the rowing course. As a consequence, Oxford Archaeology undertook an area excavation calling the area 'Site 16'. A rectangular 9-post building was found on the east side of the main enclosure (10).
