Abstract: |
In response to a series of proposed developments including housing, a community centre and a school, seven stages of archaeological were undertaken between 1998 and 2002. The earliest archaeology present was a general background scatter of struck flint. Three small Late Iron Age pits, one of which contained cremated human remains in a Gallo-Belgic Pot were found. Roman activity was restricted to occasional sherds of pottery. The medieval period saw evidence for large ditches and pits. The post-medieval period saw the dividing-up of the landscape with church walls and pitting for the recovery of gravel. [Au(abr)] |
