Two ring ditch excavations at Willington, Derbyshire, 2014

Abstract

Two ring ditch excavations at Willington, Derbyshire, 2014
Ingham, D. (pp. 1-34)

The upcoming construction of a housing estate on the northern edge of Willington led to a programme of trial trenching, followed by two small areas of archaeological excavation. One area contained the heavily truncated remains of a hengi-form ceremonial monument, defined by two concentric ring ditches with a grave at the centre. Little evidence was found to date the monument, but it remained a focus of activity until at least the Middle Bronze Age from its origin in the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age. The other area was focused on a single ring ditch: the ditch itself was essentially undated, but a nearby cluster of pits contained pottery and loom weights dating to the Late Bronze Age.

A multi-phase prehistoric site in a middle Trent Valley landscape: excavations at Aston Hall Hospital, Aston on Trent, Derbyshire

Abstract

A multi-phase prehistoric site in a middle Trent Valley landscape: excavations at Aston Hall Hospital, Aston on Trent, Derbyshire
Flintoft, P. & Stein, S. (pp. 35-45)

The features uncovered at Aston Hall Hospital demonstrate a long-lived, possibly continuous, prehistoric use of the landscape overlooking the River Trent, which expands the timeline of the use of the landscape, and demonstrates the changes of use of space in the later prehistoric period. Pits dating throughout the Neolithic and the Early Bronze Age, and possibly the Mesolithic, dominate the early prehistoric landscape; although these pits do not have a clear function, their presence predates the local large-scale funerary landscape such as that at Swarkestone Lowes barrows and the Aston Cursus monument. The site shows a slow decline through the Middle and Late Bronze Age. The site is completely restructured in the Iron Age, with the implementation of linear ditched enclosures, trackways and pit alignments. Petrographic analysis of the Iron Age pottery also demonstrates a trade or migration network as far as Leicester, with Mountsorrel Granodiorite inclusions in some of the earlier Iron Age pottery.
