Abstract:		 Excavations were carried out at several sites as part of the Yarnton-Cassington project. At Yarnton Cresswell Field, part of a Late Bronze Age to Early Iron Age settlement was investigated. An adult inhumation with a single sherd of Bronze Age pottery was found within a possible Neolithic enclosure. An infant burial and a second adult inhumation were also found. Early Bronze Age pits, later Bronze Age domestic features and Iron Age features were revealed. A human skull, animal burials and smashed pots were found within a small number of features. A Romano-British enclosure and two ditches were also recorded. Early medieval remains included a timber hall, fences, weaving equipment and sunken-featured buildings. Two enclosures may also have been of this date. At Yarnton Floodplain B (1995), clusters of Neolithic and Bronze Age pits and post holes were found, and Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age houses were recorded. Burials or 'special' deposits and eight cremations were recorded in the vicinity of a probable Neolithic long mortuary enclosure, found in 1993. The area had been cleared of woodland prior to construction of the enclosure; regeneration of tree cover had occurred before final clearance in the Early Bronze Age. [Au(adp)]
