| Description POSI | This is a Roman slag heap, the top of which has been sectioned to form a platform. Layers of slag are clearly visible. The lower part of the slag heap is obscured by scrap metal and other rubbish and we cannot have a clear indication of the hillside. It has also been cut to the North by a road track . Just to the west is the Karkotis river and the cementation plant.(Reentered after server failure etc, MJG 20 June 2004. |
