Abstract: |
Excavation on the site of a proposed quarry extension revealed a multi-phase complex of archaeological remains. A scatter of worked flint was revealed and a major triple ditch system was excavated. The triple ditch system was shown to date to the late prehistoric period being destroyed by Roman quarrying in the 2nd-century AD. A settlement, including the remains of two enclosures, an area of agricultural processing facilitates and four inhumation burials, continued after the quarry fell into disuse, into the late 3rd century.
