| Abstract: |
The watching brief revealed a series of linear features which were dated to the late Iron Age/early Romano-British period as well as a series of post-medieval rubbish pits. A group of seven post holes was uncovered which may have represented a fence line or similar structure. Four substantial post holes were seen at the bottom of a tree throw hole, however, their purpose was not clear. The linear features represented the ongoing use of the area for agriculture during the Late Iron Age/ early Roman period, whilst the pits suggested that the area was subsequently used for the limited disposal of domestic waste during the post-medieval period.
