Abstract:		 Eleven trenches were excavated on the site, with archaeological remains dating from the Late Iron Age to early Romano-British period discovered in ten of the trenches. However, as the pottery finds from these features were sparse and abraded, their date must remain in question. The late Iron Age/Early Romano-British features consisted of shallow ditches and pits containing occasional fragments of pottery. These features appeared to be traces of agricultural field boundaries, probably forming part of an extensive field system. No evidence of domestic structures were identified although all the features appeared to be severely truncated by ploughing, leaving little chance of shallow features surviving. The sparse finds, including pottery and burnt flint, were likely to have been derived from a settlement in the general vicinity but there was no indication of occupation within or immediately adjacent to the development area. Activity in the post-medieval period was restricted to a ploughsoil horizon identified in all trenches. [Au(abr)]
