Abstract: |
The evaluation revealed a series of ditches which were believed to be Roman and medieval field boundaries. The field boundaries were the only features, other than those of modern origin, to which a definite function could be attributed. Ridge and furrow could be demostrated to post-date the presumed Roman ditches and to be contemporary with at least some of the medieval ones. A number of post holes, stake holes and pits in four of the trenches were more difficult to interpret as they could not be demonstrated to form part of any recognisable structure. They were of unknown function but may have represented the remains of some agricultural process or possibly some flimsy shelter erected for needs of the moment. [Au(abr)] |
