Abstract: |
The evaluation indicated that the main focus of activity was concentrated within one of the three fields investigated. Within this northeast corner of the scheduled area there was a discernable concentration of activity, with perhaps a continuity of occupation within the landscape from the Bronze Age onwards. The evaluation indicated that Romano-British domestication did not extend eastwards beyond the area of settlement defined by aerial photographic evidence. The Romano-British activity identified within the field was restricted to agricultural field enclosures and paddocks, and may therefore have been interpreted as the peripheral elements of the main settlement complex. To the south, the archaeological evidence was much more restricted. Iron Age activity was seen by a subrectangular enclosure, and by an isolated post hole to the west. The majority of the features in this location were representative of medieval/post-medieval cultivation practises. [Au (adp)] |
