An archaeological excavation beneath the site of Gloucester's former Debenhams store revealed over 300 skeletons, Roman ruins, and centuries of history buried beneath the city's streets. The excavation uncovered a cemetery associated with the medieval St. Aldate's Church, as well as artifacts from the Roman and post-medieval eras. The site is being transformed into the University of Gloucestershire's new City Campus. The excavation has provided valuable insights into the rich and diverse archaeology of Gloucester and expands our understanding of the city's history.
