Abstract: |
A metal detector survey and trial trench evaluation revealed a very high degree of truncation and disturbance from previous forestry planting and felling. Metallic objects found by metal detector were all of later post-medieval of modern ditch. A single ditch was the only archaeological feature recognised. This was likely to be of fairly recent date as it contained a lead musket ball dated between the 17th and 19th centuries. Occasional unstratified flint flakes and a single flint scraper indicate a later prehistoric presence within the area. The site has very little potential for further archaeological investigation despite its proximity to a major Anglo-Saxon cemetery and nearby multi-period artefact scatters |
