Abstract:
The archaeological work found a multi-period site. Seven features or possible features were found dating to the Neolithic, Early Bronze Age and Late Bronze Age to Early Iron Age, signifying limited identifiable activity across these periods. Between the Middle Iron Age and the Middle Roman period there was permanent occupation along a north to south ridge parallel to the Lee Brook. The settlement appears to have begun around the 4th to 3rd centuries BC, consisting of an unenclosed site covering an area of over 300m (north to south) by c.150m (east to west). A number of roundhouse ditches were recorded alongside 98 storage pits and four buried soil layers. The pits were grouped in areas suggesting that they may have been linked to the individual roundhouses and/or family groups. A number of pits contained domestic refuse or placed deposits. Activity continued into the Late Iron Age with the settlement now partly enclosed. The settlement was fully enclosed between the time of the Conquest (or just before) and the late 1st century AD. Two domestic occupation areas lay 100m apart. A single Early Saxon sunken-featured building was found in the extreme northern-eastern part of the site.
