Note: |
A combined evaluation and excavation report for the 2014 works. the excavation area in the centre of the Site revealed a small concentration of archaeological features, with only post-medieval/modern drainage features identified within the evaluation trenches to the north. The excavated features were limited to two ditches and three shallow pits, all within close proximity to the features identified during the evaluation. The finds and archaeobotanical remains place the excavated remains within a late prehistoric/Romano-British agricultural landscape, with evidence of grain and barley production including possible storage and an indication of domestic settlement within the vicinity. Re-dating of the pottery from the evaluation together with radiocarbon dating indicates this activity originated in the Middle Iron Age.
