Abstract: |
During an evaluation in 2007 several small features with charcoal-rich fills were dated by radiocarbon to the Mesolithic. As a result a small area excavation 20 x 20m was undertaken in 2010 prior to development. This revealed two more plough truncated pits, one containing 2 sherds of Bronze Age pottery, the other a single, possibly Bronze Age, flint. An unstratified flint from an engineer's test pit is of probable Neolithic type. Although the paucity of surviving features was disappointing, the range of dates emphasises the longevity of prehistoric activity on the site which lies beside the henge at Broomend of Crichie. |
