Abstract:
Four-hundred trenches, several of which were located on anomalies identified during a preceding geophysical survey, were excavated. The earliest features encountered, within trench 226, consisted of a wide Iron Age ditch, into which a later, narrower, ditch, containing Early to Middle Iron Age pottery, drained. A recut of the earlier ditch contained pottery of probable Late Iron Age date. A single, undiagnostic, worked flint and a sherd of possible Early Iron Age pottery were also recovered from subsoil horizons in trenches 48 and 332 respectively. Single sherds of Roman pottery, including one sherd of 1st to 2nd-century AD date, were recovered as topsoil and subsoil finds in trenches 24 and 190. Evidence of medieval and later agricultural practice, comprising ploughed-out ridge and furrow cultivation remains, was identified throughout the site. Post-medieval and modern features identified included field drains and two ditches in trench 107 probably representing a former field boundary.
