Abstract: |
Twenty-seven trial trenches were excavated in response to a planning proposal. The site lay adjacent to a SAM, in an area containing a large quantity of cropmarks, some of which fell within the study area. The typology of these cropmarks suggests Iron Age, Romano-British or Saxon origins. Several features previously identified as cropmarks were confirmed and several other previously unknown features were identified, whilst others proved to be unrelated to archaeological features. A trackway was identified in the western part of the site, which appeared to have been in use during the Iron Age and Romano-British periods. The central part of the site contained a ladder enclosure that probably dated to the Iron Age and a zone of multi-period occupation activity from the Iron Age to the Saxon period. The eastern part of the site was characterised by a series of parallel Romano-British ditches. [Au(abr)] |
