Abstract:
An archaeological trench evaluation was undertaken by AC archaeology in 2014 on land near Somerton Door. Features of Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age, Middle Bronze Age, Late Bronze Age to Middle Iron Age and Romano-British date were identified and consisted of ditches, pits and postholes. The excavations aligned with geophysical survey indicated that settlement activity related to enclosures of Bronze Age and Romano-British date. Analysis of the plant macrofossils indicate the early use in the Bronze Age of a spelt type wheat and possible very early pre-Iron Age use of pea. A small assemblage of late prehistoric and Roman pottery was also recovered.
