Abstract:
Excavation in 2017 of two areas off Riverton Road, Puriton exposed at least two enclosures of Middle to Late Iron Age date, probably used for settlement purposes. A number of linear features to the east probably represented elements of a contemporary field system, whilst an inhumation burial south of the enclosures appears to have been contemporary. Roman activity was represented by a small number of ditches, a probable cremation pit and a scatter of isolated pits.
