Abstract: |
The desktop survey had revealed details of several archaeological sites adjacent to the site, mainly identified within arable fields as cropmarks, indicative of Iron Age/Roman settlement and field systems. Six trial trenches were excavated, which identified a range of archaeological features including post-holes, pits and ditches. The absence of occupational debris prevented definite assignment to a chronological period, but they were likely to be mainly Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age, with the ditches probably being medieval or later. The post-holes and pits were clustered in discrete areas although it was not possible to determine their full extent. Four areas of archaeological remains were identified including possible medieval ditches and Bronze/Iron Age occupation. [Au(abr)] |
