Abstract:
Previous evaluation of the site at Manor Farm identified evidence for archaeological activity across the site. The current work comprised open area excavation of the total footprint of each new house. Settlement and funerary activity dating from the Middle Bronze Age through to the present day were identified. Deposits included Iron Age storage pits, well-furnished 'Durotrigian' burials, a circular structure with stone foundation dating to the early Roman period and a cemetery area which may be late Romano-British or early Saxon. Cartographic and other documentary evidence indicated that Portesham may have been the site of a Saxon Minster.[Au(abr)]
