Abstract:
A limited salvage excavation was carried out at a site where a low-level evaluation and a watching brief had recorded several concentrations of Roman activity and an Iron Age settlement. During the excavation, a system of Roman enclosures and ditches was revealed. Two large pits and the probable base of a pottery kiln were found within one enclosure. Late 3rd-4th century pottery was recovered from the uppermost fills of the pits. A 'U'-shaped arrangement of gullies of uncertain function was also noted. Undated features included possible post holes which may have indicated a roundhouse, pits and four possible lengths of ditch. [AIP]
