Abstract:
Desk-based study and a trial excavation were carried out in advance of proposed residential development, at a site which lay within an area of possible prehistoric or Roman settlement revealed by cropmarks. One cropmark, comprising a sub-rectangular enclosure, lay within the application area. Cartographic evidence indicated that the site had remained unoccupied from the 19th century onwards. The excavation of trial trenches revealed a ditch forming the western element of the cropmark. This contained eight sherds of abraded Roman pottery. Two sherds of post-medieval pottery were also recovered, but no further archaeological features were revealed. It was concluded that the ditch may have represented the western side of a Roman field, possibly associated with a farmstead or farmsteads located to the north-east and south-east in the vicinity of two cropmark sites.
