Abstract: |
A watching brief was carried out during groundworks prior to the construction of a dwelling, at a site which lay within a complex multi-period landscape. Well-preserved remains had been recorded nearby, including a deserted medieval village which was a Scheduled Ancient Monument, and earthworks which may have been of Roman, medieval or Civil War date. The site lay on, or immediately adjacent to, the line of a Roman road. During the watching brief, a possible pre-enclosure plough furrow and a deeply buried ridge of gravel, which may have been part of a road surface but was probably not Roman, were recorded. A small number of stone and flint artefacts, probably of prehistoric date, were recovered, and a sheep burial was noted. [AIP] |
