Abstract: |
Three trenches located towards the northern edge of the site all contained cut features of early Roman date. These included pits, ditches and a post hole. One of the trenches also encountered a large early ditch, which may date from the late prehistoric period. A single sherd of probable Iron Age pottery was found in a later deposit in this trench. With the exception of a single Roman ditch, found within a trench towards the southern boundary of the site, no other archaeological features were encountered during the evaluation. All of the trenches contained evidence for medieval and post-medieval agricultural activity, indicating that throughout this period the site was occupied by arable fields. Two the trenches excavated in the northern part of the site also contained the remains of 19th century horticultural activity. [Au(abr)] |
