Silchester Bath House 2018- Week 1

The first week of this excavation has uncovered some amazing archaeology. The targetted Bathhouse is survived by both architectural ruins and material culture such as:

• A latrine of standing walls, archways and plinths.
• A hypocaust system of structural walling and pilae tile stacks.
• A possible changing room and adjoining structural features (still to be identified).
• Tiles with kitten paw prints, shoe prints and deer hoof prints.
• Broken glass vials, pottery sherds and a possible bracelet.
