Abstract:
Following work conducted in 2008 (a desk-based assessment and geophysical survey) SWARCH was asked to supervise the excavation of a series of evaluation trenches across two fields on the eastern edge of Exeter Airport Business Park. This sampling investigated both the geophysical anomalies identified previously and a representative sample of the remainder of the site. With a single exception, the features encountered were modern in date (ceramic land drains and a probable water main). The sole ancient feature [410] consisted of the partial remains of a heavily truncated Middle Bronze Age ring ditch in the western field. Only approximately 30% of the circumference of the feature survived, and this contained three fills. The middle fill, context (411), contained a mass of fire-shattered rock and charcoal, a deposit similar to those associated with the contemporary but enigmatic burnt mounds. A small amount of lithic material and 18th century pottery and a rather greater amount of 19th century ceramics was recovered during fieldwalking, supporting the suggestion that these fields were enclosed at a relatively late date.
