Abstract:		 The archaeological investigation revealed two distinct phases of activity, including probable Iron Age activity with more intensive medieval activity. The recovery of several struck flints also indicates that the site had witnessed some pre-Iron Age activity. The earliest features identified during the investigation were localised within the northwest portion of the site and comprised several penannular features associated with circular structures. Although no secure dating evidence has as yet been provided for this activity, the remains identified closely correspond with a number of Iron Age settlements within the northeast of England. Archaeological remains of medieval date made up the majority of activity identified on site. It was clear that a number of developments had taken place across the site during this period, although attempting to group the archaeological features within any particular phase of activity proved difficult due to the broad dating of the ceramic evidence and the lack of stratigraphic relationships between many of the features. In general, the medieval activity appeared to largely comprise a number of divisional boundaries, possibly demarcating different areas of activity and/or different land holdings. Of particular significance was the identification of three separate medieval kilns at the site. It appears that all three were used for the process of drying grain and more specifically, oats. The presence of three kilns utilised for the same purpose within the investigation area suggests that grain processing was a major part of the activities undertaken at the site during the medieval period.
