Abstract: |
The recent archaeological excavation took place between 8th May and 14th July 2006. The results of the excavation mirrored the results seen in the 1995 excavation. Roman pits, the north-east and south-east extent of a Roman ditch (initially found in 1995) and at least three medieval pits, one 17th century pit and an east-west aligned boundary wall were recorded. The spread of the features was sparse with much of the eastern side of the site covered largely by a medieval ploughsoil that produced six residual late Roman coins. Other finds of note included, a bone comb and a medieval iron buckle found within pits. A quantity of residual prehistoric struck flint, including a Mesolithic handaxe, was found during cleaning activity of the natural gravel surfaces. |
