| Abstract: |
The evidence from the trenches confirmed that alluvial deposition has predominated across the study area prior to the historic period. That regime has, on at least on occasion and probably during the Romano-British period, changed to much drier terrestrial conditions associated with the development of vegetation and, by inference, land drainage and agriculture. The location of two important and previously unrecorded Romano-British settlement sites in Fields 3 and 27/28 added weight to this interpretation, as no equivalent soils were identified beneath the level of the shallowly buried Roman deposits.
