Archaeological finds at A483 Four Crosses bypass

Archaeologists have discovered Iron, Bronze and Roman Age remains on the route of a new bypass on the Powys/Shropshire border.

In a dig before the construction work on the A483 Four Crosses bypass, Bronze Age burial monuments, Iron Age burials and metalworking, and Roman metalworking and farming activity are believed to have been found.

The Welshpool-based Clwyd-Powys Archaeological Trust (CPAT) said today that archaeologists will now analyse the findings.
