Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Following preliminary survey work in 1997, small-scale excavations were carried out on an area of shrunkensettlement earthworks to the north of Puxton village, near Weston-super-Mare, on the North Somerset Levels. Two slightly raised platforms were sectioned which yielded evidence for occupation between the 11th and 17th centuries, including a cesspit, various drainage gullies, and the stone footings of a possible building. Several substantial ditches were also excavated that yielded organically-rich midden deposits. These contexts should provide excellent comparative material for the early medieval assemblages recovered during excavations to the south of Puxton church in I 996, and indeed for the Romano-British material retrieved from the sites at Banwell Moor and Kenn Moor. | ||
