Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological recording was undertaken as part of a management plan to enhance Uley Bury Hillfort (Scheduled Ancient Monument and Site of Scientific Interest), mainly by reducing tree cover on ramparts. The results identified substantial deposits of Iron Age crushed limestone, probably representing the re-deposition of displaced bedrock during the hillfort construction. The foundation of a Romano-British wall was also revealed on the outer edge of the hillfort's south-eastern terrace, confirming that use of the site continued into or was re-established in the Roman period. Finds included Iron Age pottery, Tetricus II coin (270-273AD) and post-medieval pottery. [Au(adp)] |
