Abstract:
This report describes the results of evaluation and excavation of parts of a scheduled cropmark complex during 1984 and 1985. Features included an Early Bronze Age ring-ditch, with evidence for possible Late Neolithic occupation, and Middle to Late Bronze Age cremations cut into the ditch fill, Middle Iron Age pits and enclosure ditches, Late Iron Age and Early Roman ditches, and an Anglo-Saxon grubenhaus. There was evidence of alluvial deposition in the Early Roman period. Preservation of features was poor over most of the site, with severe erosion by ploughing evident from the medieval period onwards, so that no ground or ground floor surfaces survived, and traces of posthole or other structures were only rarely encountered. There are specialist report sections on `The finds: the pottery' by Jane Evans (26-39), `The other finds: fired clay, metalwork, worked bone, shale' by Jane Evans (39--42), `Worked stone' by Fiona Roe (42--3), `Flint' by Alan Saville (43--5), `Human bone' (46--8), `Animal bone' by Julie Lovett (48--54), `Carbonised seeds' by Joy Ede (54--9), `Material from vessel contents 480 and pit fill 1079' by Clare de Rouffignac (54), and finally a `Discussion' by James Dinn (58--63).
