The Roman fortress baths, excavation and recording 1732–1998. Archaeological Service Excavation & Survey report No 13 by David J P Mason and others. A major new report on Chester's Roman fortress bath house was published in May 2005. It draws together discoveries made by generations of antiquaries but focuses on the excavations during the construction of the Grosvenor Precinct in 1963 and 1964. These revealed that the bath buildings mark an important stage in the evolution of monumental public architecture in the Roman Empire. The report was written by David Mason with major contributions from staff of the Archaeology and Museum Services. It is the thirteenth volume in the Archaeological Service's Excavation & Survey monograph series, which seeks to make available the unique legacy of unpublished excavations carried out in Chester during the last forty years. The volume is available from the Grosvenor Museum shop. Please contact Sarah Rodriguez, Retail & Finance Officer, Grosvenor Museum, 27 Grosvenor Street, Chester CH1 2DD (Tel 01244 402008) for further details. |
