Abstract:
Following geophysical survey of the development site in 2014 and evaluation of Phases 3, 4 and 5 in 2018, two excavation areas, totalling c.1,885sq m, were targeted upon prehistoric remains in the south and west. A Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age pit and a small assemblage of residual prehistoric flint are indicative of a low level and transient prehistoric presence in the landscape. More substantial remains of Middle Iron Age date were found, primarily focused within Area 1, and consisted of parallel ditches and a gully, two hearths and a pit. A third Middle Iron Age hearth/fire pit was recorded in isolation in Area 2. Continuations of the linear features have been identified to the north and southeast, suggesting that they formed a substantial land boundary likely related to agricultural activity. The hearths/fire pits also attest to dispersed activity possibly associated with a nearby farmstead. No features postdating the Middle Iron Age were identified. Historic maps and an assemblage of metal-detected finds dating from the 17th century onwards demonstrate the agricultural nature of land use and the site's use as a military airfield during the Second World War.
