Abstract:
The evaluation comprised aerial photograph assessment, fieldwalking, geophysical survey and trial trenching. A single potential archaeological site in the form of a circular feature was identified. Fieldwalking survey of the available arable fields produced very little evidence of pre-Late Iron Age activity. Thin scatters of flints of probable Late Neolithic to Bronze Age date were found. Late Iron Age, Romano-British, medieval and post-medieval finds were found in low density across much of the area and were interpreted as evidence of contemporary manuring. Saxon material was present in very low densities. Trial trenching clarified the form and date of two enclosures identified by the geophysical survey. [Au(abr)]
