Abstract:
From the middle Iron Age there were two settlements: Area 1 was excavated and Area 3 has been preserved in situ. Area 1 was a small open settlement, probably containing four roundhouses, although not necessarily contemporary. It is suggested that occupation spanned the 2nd to 1st centuries BC. In the early 1st century AD, a boundary division was introduced to Area 1 and it is likely that further settlement was established to the west, Area 2, preserved in situ. At least one roundhouse was present into the early Roman period. The dividing ditch was retained until the mid-2nd century, when there was a new arrangement created respecting the earlier alignment. In the 3rd and 4th centuries a small Roman settlement comprised a rectangular sub-enclosure, layers of domestic debris and two wells. These were probably related to a timber house for which all direct traces had been lost. There was extensive evidence of medieval ridge and furrow throughout the site, and a stretch of medieval road between Oakham and Barleythorpe was excavated in Area 4. A post-medieval parish boundary wall was recorded in Area 1 and a 17th to 18th-century brick well was filled and capped in Area 4.
