Abstract:		 An evaluation was carried out at the proposed site of a distributor road for an ongoing housing development. Prehistoric remains recorded in the surrounding area included Bronze Age and Iron Age artefacts and an Early Iron Age roundhouse. Medieval settlement had been documented, and the route of a Roman road passed nearby. During the evaluation, two ditches were revealed, one of which had been identified as an anomaly during a geophysical survey prior to trenching. One contained Early Iron Age pottery and probable iron-working slag, whilst the other contained Early Iron Age and intrusive Romano-British pottery. An undated hearth and post-medieval pottery were also recorded. It was concluded that the ditches may have represented field boundaries or part of an enclosure. [AIP]
