Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at the proposed site of a housing development which lay within an Area of High Archaeological Potential. Limited desk-based study indicated that the area had potentially formed part of a medieval planned village, and that features which appeared to represent an enclosure and a double ditch had been recorded in close proximity to the site, on an aerial photograph. During the evaluation, a small number of prehistoric flints and six sherds of Romano-British pottery were found, and medieval features were recorded. These included a gully, a pit, and several features of indeterminate function. A possibe robbed structural wall and an undated linear feature were also recorded, and pottery of a 12th-13th century date was recovered. It was concluded that the presence of medieval structures within an area of the site not tested by the evaluation was a possibility. [AIP] |
