Abstract:
Open-area excavation in advance of a retail park development revealed traces of Neolithic/Bronze Age activity, indicated by the presence of flint artefacts and prolonged Romano-British occupation which included iron smelting and agricultural activity between the late 2nd to 4th centuries. A series of enclosures and field boundaries were identified which formed part of a farmstead, with a human burial and undated human cremation deposited just inside one of the enclosures. Evidence of post-Roman and medieval activity was also recorded on the site, although insufficient had been preserved to determine the precise nature of activity. [Auth adap]
