The article Roman fort discovered under Exeter bus station written by PA Media and published on The Guardian website on Thursday, September 26, 2019, talks about the newly discovered Roman military outpost located in the city of Exeter, Devon, just under the city's bus station.
We're given some general backstory of the discovery, a description of the site and the findings on its territory and an extra detail on what preceded this unexpected discovery. Then we can read a quote by Andrew Pye, an archaeology officer at Exeter city council, he talks of the historical importance of the Exeter area, supporting his claim by providing additional examples of other Roman constructions that were discovered back in the 1970s. We can then also read a small bit on these older discoveries as well.
The article ends with a quote by Derek Evans, the fieldwork project manager at Cotswold Archaeology’s Exeter office, stating that the archaeologists are looking forward to analysing the material they've gathered.
