Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation on c.27ha of land confirmed evidence of Romano-British enclosures in the northern part of the site which had been suggested by previous geophysical survey. Few artefacts were recovered although the features and finds uncovered suggested occupation spanning the 1st to 4th centuries AD. A probable Late Neolithic pit and a possible Iron Age pit were also examined in this area. The remainder of the site revealed a probable medieval ditch and low density of undated features.
