Abstract:
This excavation and a previous evaluation found archaeological remains only within the northern part of the proposed development. A single relatively large Late Iron Age pit was uncovered in the north-western part of the excavation area. This pit contained a moderate quantity of artefacts and some burnt cereal including spelt wheat (chaff elements show it was being cultivated), oats and weed seeds suggesting a settlement of this period was nearby. Two residual Roman pottery sherds were also recovered. Also revealed were at least two phases of Saxo-Norman to early medieval occupation located in the northern part of the site and less than 100m from Castle Hill, a site known for its medieval manor. This settlement was probably contemporary with medieval Moulton located more than 0.5km to the south-east. It may be evidence that Moulton was a polyfocal settlement during the earlier medieval period. It may have been associated with one of the minor manors or one of the under-tenants to the main manor recorded in the Domesday Survey for Moulton (1086).
