Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	The earliest artefact from the excavation was a polished Neolithic flint axe, recovered from an Iron Age ditch. Settlement on the site commenced in the middle/late Iron Age, with continuous occupation extending into the 4th century AD. The focus of the early settlement (middle/late Iron Age to mid 1st century AD) appears to lie in the field to the south of the site, with the northern corner of an enclosure, bounded by a large ditch, extending into the excavated area. Pits, ditches and gullies, some of which were cut by the enclosure ditch, and the significant quantities of pottery and bone from this area, suggest habitation nearby. Parts of a contemporary boundary system, probably demarcating fields or paddocks, lay to the north-east of the enclosure. In the early Roman period a regular boundary system was established over the earlier settlement. A small sub-enclosure within one of the enclosed areas suggests that they were probably used to hold livestock and that the settlement's economy was largely pastoral. In the late Roman period the boundary system was replaced by a large enclosure. The site appears to have been abandoned in the 4th century AD, although sherds of pottery in the upper fills of the enclosure ditch suggest activity in the vicinity during the early/middle Saxon period. Medieval or post-medieval furrows extended across the site from north to south.
