Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was maintained throughout four years of quarrying. This located two previously unknown cremations of Bronze Age date, while a C-shaped enclosure with both urned and un-urned cremations in the ditch may also have been of Bronze Age date. Towards the north-eastern end of the quarry a rectilinear ditch system with associated pits and a clay-lined oven was dated to the 1st century AD, while the linear ditch towards the northern end of the site was a water course of later Roman date. The watching brief had at least one more year to run. [Au(abr)] |
