Abstract:
The gradiometer survey revealed a complex of enclosures forming several distinct pattern on various alignments, indicating different phases of occupation and/or differing functions within the site. The rectangular earthwork enclosure was defined as a double ditched feature with several subdivisions, though no clear evidence for individual building plots was present. Adjacent to this, and on a different alignment was a group of rectangular enclosures forming an ordered settlement pattern bounded by trackways. Several industrial type responses were noted in this group, suggesting the remains of lead processing features. Elsewhere in the survey trackways and enclosures had been identified that formed less orderly patterns. A series of parallel linear responses and trends appeared to 'cut through' the settlement patterns and a concentration of industrial type responses was found in the immediate vicinity. The parallel responses could have been produced by 'rakes', suggesting that there was no clear delineation between lead extraction, processing and settlement. [Au(adp)]
