Derby: The Western Suburbs - The Archaeology of the Connecting Derby Inner Ring Road (Paperback, New)

The road improvements around the inner ring road of Derby (East Midlands, England) have led to the archaeological investigation of a number of sites over the past five years. These sites have included remains from the prehistoric, Roman, medieval and post-medieval periods, although the majority of the remains have related to the last 900 years. The work has allowed a picture of the development of the western side of Derby to be built up over the course of its evolution. In many respects the non-selective random nature of the development has allowed disparate sites in location, function and chronology to be examined in the same project in a way that would not have been achieved by targeted research led investigation. This has allowed a broad picture of the area to emerge that may suggest patterns in the development of the city suburbs. Contents: Chapter 1 Introduction and background to the work; Chapter 2) Roman and Prehistoric Derby; Chapter 3) Medieval and early Post-Medieval Derby the western fringes; Chapter 4) 18th and 19th century derby - the development of the west end suburb; Chapter 5) The artefact, ecofact and environmental evidence; Chapter 6) Conclusions.
