Abstract:		 Archaeological investigations revealed moderately well preserved archaeological features and deposits, which included evidence for late Mesolithic occupation activity, in the form of a relatively substantial flint scatter, along with a limited assemblage of late Neolithic/early Bronze Age flints and a small amount of Iron Age pottery. A probable Prehistoric ring-ditch was also present; however, it remained unclear if it represented a truncated barrow ditch or a roundhouse drip-gully. Roman settlement evidence, represented by pits, postholes, ditches and a probable corn drier, was datable to the earlier-mid Roman period. A large number of the pits were probably limestone quarries, with the corn drier, ditches and dispersed postholes and pits most likely representing activity related to an agricultural regime. The recovered Roman pottery, CBM, animal bone and small finds assemblages were consistent with a rural settlement. There was limited evidence that at least some of the Roman features were in-filled in the Saxon or early-Medieval period.
