Excavation in the forum, 1947
Back to Time Period
Following wartime destruction, Lady Fox was able to excavate parts of the forum prior to the construction of modern shops in South Street in 1946-9.
This photograph from Lady Fox’s archive shows the foundation trenches of forum walls (foreground); a deserted South Street is in the middle distance.
