Abstract: |
The current evaluation identified the remains of a possible enclosure and other features dating to the Middle Iron Age on the western periphery of the known Iron Age settlement, and in the pasture field to the south, a Roman ditch, gully and pits were investigated. The Roman gully contained fragments of kiln bars and pottery 'wasters', indicating that pottery production was being undertaken on the site in the Roman period. The remains of medieval/post-medieval furrows were encountered in four of the trenches in the southern corner of the site, to the north-east of the hedge of the large arable field that forms the greater part of the Western Employment Area. Modern made-ground was observed in the northern part of the site. |
