Abstract
The third season of excavations at Verulamium, inaugurated by the Research Committee of this Society, lasted from 4th July to 24th August 1957. The main area investigated lay along the edge of the allotment field between the theatre and the forum; this area was not accessible previously for reasons mentioned in last year's report, and in consequence much work had to be fitted into the time available, and even so, the lowest levels were not completely explored. But in addition further work was done on site K. VII at the rear of the defences beside the river, and a new site S was explored north-east of the river Ver on the brow of the rise above the millstream. Here a large extra-mural building, or buildings, with a cellar came to light; but its complete excavation had to be deferred. Work by contractors on the new road began during the excavations, and this work was watched; after the excavations closed, the staff of the museum rescued an important new deposit of Belgic mint debris.
