Abstract:		 Excavation identified and recorded Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age 'Beaker' settlement activity in the form of a pit cluster, with other possible dispersed pits nearby. Some of the Beaker pits yielded baked clay fragments, which may be indicative of limited pottery production in the locale; however, these artefacts could also be the re-deposited remains of a domestic hearth. There was also evidence that flints and stones had been burnt or heated, although the precise reason for this remained unclear. Evidence for available food items was present in the form of charred Hazel nutshells and Barley grains. A co-axial ditched field system, which included part of a droveway, was most likely to be later than the Beaker settlement activity. Due to a lack of securely stratified artefactual material and poor stratigraphic associations, the ditches remained poorly dated; however, a limited amount of pottery from the ditch fills, along with their general layout, suggested that they could possibly be of Iron Age/Roman date.
