Abstract: |
A possible Roman cemetery and finds of Roman pottery had been previously found close to the development area. Neolithic flint had also been found to the north-east. Map evidence indicated substantial building since the early 19th century. The south facing slope of the site may have encouraged settlement and agriculture from as early as the prehistoric era. Extensive Iron Age occupation was also known less than 1 km to the north-east of the site. [Au(abr)] |
