Abstract: |
Archaeological remains were uncovered in only one area, where a trench crossed the central part of a probable ring-ditch about 24 metres in diameter. Finds from the ring ditch were not inconsistent with a prehistoric date, but close dating evidence was lacking. The surviving depth of the ring-ditch was shallow, and it had probably been truncated by medieval or earlier ploughing. No evidence of human remains was uncovered. [Au(adp)] |
