Salinae

DROITWICH (Town) ENGLAND
Salinae (Droitwich) Worcestershire, England.
As the Roman name, given in the Ravenna Cosmography, implies, the settlement here was connected with salt workings, but on the high ground E of Dodderhill traces of military sites of the 1st c. have been investigated. The only civil buildings studied are those in Bays Meadow, where a tessellated pavement was found in 1849. A winged-corridor house of 4th c. date was excavated in 1954-55. The site was enclosed with a ditch system of uncertain date of which only the NE corner survives.
