Abstract: |
The evaluation comprised the machine excavation of 14 trenches totalling 420m in length, with each trench measuring 1.80m in width. These were positioned to target a number of the geophysical anomalies, with the aim of establishing their significance. An enclosure ditch of Middle Bronze Age date was exposed in area 10, whilst one side of a probable Bronze Age ring ditch was located in area 6. Further ditches of Bronze Age date were found in areas 6 and 8. Several of the features in area 8 where identified as being of post-medieval date, including what appears to be a large enclosure. All of the features in area G were also of post-medieval date. A small number of ditches were undated, but may represent parts of field systems earlier than the present landscape. |
