Abstract: |
Seven evaluation trenches were excavated. Trench 7, in the south-east part of the site, identified a concentration of Bronze Age struck flints and flint tools. The second stage of the evaluation included the opening up of a larger trench. The aim of the excavations was to plot the distribution of struck and burnt flints and identify any prehistoric or other period features. After the modern overburden had been machined away, the excavation trench was divided into metre squares, avoiding the extensive modern truncation. Flints were collected from each of the 111 squares excavated and the distribution plotted. No prehistoric features were encountered. Agricultural features, probably dating to the medieval period survived in the south of the excavation trench. [Au(abr)] |
