Buckinghamshire

Discredited Kiln Site

The following kiln site has been omitted from the gazetteer:
Stone SP7812 (Rec. Buckinghamshire 4 (1972), 122); there is no evidence that this is Roman in date; it does not lie near any known Romano-British kiln concentration, although there is a considerable amount of stray Romano-British material from the area (inf. M. Farley).

Sulhamstead Bannister SU67246657 (Berkshire Archaeol J. 10 (1904), 114). No wasters or burnt clay debris among material; evidence observed in 1902 is suggestive of late IA early RB domestic occupation, possibly including hearths.

Bedfordshire

The following, formerly claimed as a kiln site, cannot on present evidence be included in the gazetteer:
Luton Weller Street, TL09252155; material associated with this site (in Luton Mus), and ovens and other evidence revealed during recent redevelopment there suggest the supposed Roman kiln (Austin 1928, 24) to be Medieval/post-Medieval in date (inf. A Simco).
