Abstract:
A high density of archaeological features were revealed during a two phase archaeological evaluation. The majority of these were possible palisade trenches or gullies, generally aligned north-south. A small number of linear features were found on an east-west alignment. None of the linear features seemed to form the outline of buildings. Several pits were also observed, and while it was not possible to ascribe them a definite function, it was certain that they were not for the disposal of domestic rubbish. A broad, shallow linear feature with a slight kink was identified as a holloway. This may have been the precursor to the path known as "The Leys", only a few metres to the east of the site. Despite the concentration of archaeology, few finds were recovered, and thus dating the site was problematic. The assemblage consisted largely of abraded Roman pottery, burnt flint and some animal bone. A few Middle Iron Age sherds were the only non-Roman pottery recovered. Neither the pottery nor the flint could conclusively date the site, but it seemed most likely that the features were late-or-post-Roman. [Au]
