Abstract: |
An archaeological desk-based assessment and field evaluation was undertaken in advance of proposals to construct two new dwellings and associated garages on the site. The site was located in the historic core of the village of Steeple Morden. A crop mark complex to the immediate west of the site indicated activities of probable Roman date. Archaeological finds and cropmarks were known from close to the site, confirming that the area had a moderately high archaeological potential, though no remains were known within the site itself. Trial trenching of the site revealed the presence of a large number of archaeological features of Romano-British date. These predominantly comprised ditches and curvilinear features representing enclosures. A number of larger pits and smaller post holes were also present, indicative of occupation. [Au(abr)] |
