Abstract:		 The programme of surface collection showed evidence for prehistoric activity dating (on the basis of individually diagnostic tools) from the earlier Neolithic period onwards. However, the majority of the material suggested activity dating to the Bronze Age, possibly contemporary with the construction of the round barrows which lay within the study area. There appeared to be no consistent relationship between artefact scatters and the barrows and the pattern of linear ditches which overlay the study area. The absence of significant quantities of pottery contemporaneous with the worked flint was unsurprising considering the condition of the latter which suggested intensive cultivation during the recent past. A limited auger survey demonstrated the potential for the survival of undisturbed soil horizons deposits sealed beneath localised colluvial deposits. [Au]
