Abstract: |
The excavations at Eddington revealed yet more of a complex pattern of settlement activity spanning several millennia, in an area until recently thought to be unsuitable for settlement. The discoveries in Phase 2 provided a window into an extensive and complex archaeological landscape. During the course of the evaluation causeways, ditches, gullies and post holes were attributed to the Late Bronze Age. Subsequently, a Roman field system and an Anglo-Saxon enclosure, surrounded by a triple circuit of ditches was also encountered. Despite the local geology, comprising unyielding heavy, poor draining clays, during the prehistoric, Roman and Anglo-Saxon periods, the site was revisited and settled.[Au(abr)] |
