Abstract:
The excavation revealed twenty archaeological features which fell into five main periods of site activity: i) Late Neolithic - Early Bronze Age, represented by two ditches and possibly two pits. Finds evidence from the ditches were a re-touched tanged and barbed arrowhead, sherds of Neolithic Peterborough Ware, and a single beaker sherd. ii)Later Prehistoric, this period took the form of the presence of residual sherds of Later Bronze Age (Deverel Rimbury Period c.1200BC) and Iron Age pottery. iii)Romano-British, a residual sherd of Samian Ware, c. AD150. iv) Mid-Late Saxon, represented by pits, postholes and ditches. Many of the pits were filled with animal bone including wild boar and the near complete skeleton of a fish (possibly salmon or sea trout). Ceramic finds consisted of two pot sherds, one of them Ipswich Ware, c. AD 750-850. Another artefact of interest was a pierced and polished disc of Kimmeridge shale. v) Medieval, 12th - 14th centuries, to this phase belonged a dyke composed of flint and pebbles. [AIP]
