Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at a proposed gravel extraction site, where linear cropmarks had been noted on aerial photographs. A Roman field system and droveway had been identified nearby, whilst Neolithic pits, a possible Bronze Age ring ditch and cairn and an Iron Age settlement had been excavated 1.4km to the east. During the evaluation, the truncated remains of Iron Age and Roman field systems were recorded. Features included ditches, pits and post holes, some of which formed enclosures. It was confirmed that one of the cropmarks represented a ditch associated with a post-medieval field boundary; the remaining cropmarks were probably of geological origin. [AIP] |
