Abstract:
Evaluation by means of fieldwalking, geophysical survey and the excavation of 12 trenches was used to investigate the extent and date of an Early-Mid Saxon cemetery, found by a metal detectorist, and the site of a deserted medieval village at Middle Carlton. The geophysical survey produced evidence of prehistoric and Roman-British activity, including a previously unrecorded ring ditch, probably the ditch of an Early Bronze Age barrow, which was sectioned and dated by a sherd from a Collared Urn. Within the interior was a severely truncated cremation burial. A Roman enclosure system, probably related to a field system, was also recorded. In the Saxon cemetery, an urned cremation burial and three inhumation burials, aligned east to west, were excavated. The burials were those of a female, a male and a possible second male. Grave goods included personal jewellery, knives and a shield boss. One of the inhumation burials truncated a pit containing cremated animal bone. Another lay close to the line of a post-medieval road which may have followed the line of a much earlier boundary and defined the extent of the cemetery. A number of trenches excavated to define the limits of the cemetery did not locate additional graves.
