Abstract:
A large scale housing development on the eastern outskirts of Exeter. Excavation revealed evidence of a multi-phase site, dating from the Middle Bronze Age to the medieval periods. Archaeological features extended across all five excavation areas, but were primarily encountered within Areas 2, 3, and 5. The substantial ditch, 101, investigated in Area 1, contained no dating evidence, with the exception of an abraded Neolithic sherd, which is likely to be a residual item. Area 3 contained a Middle Bronze Age barrow ring ditch, together with truncated ditch sections representing a Middle Iron Age roundhouse. Further evidence of Middle Iron Age settlement was recorded in Area 5, in the form of an oval-plan ditched enclosure and associated features. An early-mid Roman phase included two rectilinear enclosures in Area 5, together with a number of related ditches which are likely to have comprised elements of surrounding drove-ways and field system. Later Roman activity in Area 5 was evident in the fills of a small number of features, but was otherwise impossible to characterise. The final phase on this site was of mid to late medieval date, and comprised several ditches and pits in Area 2. The ditched features were interpreted as elements of a drove-way running alongside the Pinn Brook. With the exception of a group of Middle Bronze Age sherds from the ring ditch in Area 2, this site produced a limited range and quantity of artefactual evidence, and excavated features, particularly this in Area 5, were in highly truncated condition. Many features, including those from Area 5, produced no dateable material. The Tithe Barn Green site should be considered within the context of a number of recently investigated comparator prehistoric and Roman sites within the environs of Exeter.
