Abstract:
Ope area excavation at the site revealed evidence of Beaker activity (dated c.2500-1700BC), the first confirmed discovery of a 'domestic' Beaker site in Hampshire. The nature of the evidence suggests some level of 'structured deposit' or the burial of 'special deposits', supported by the presence of part of an antler mattock in one of the Beaker period features. The oldest feature encountered at the site, a ditch, may date to the Neolithic, and there was a background scatter of Mesolithic/Neolithic flintwork across the site as a whole. Evidence for later Neolithic activity was limited to the recovery two sherds of Peterborough ware from a tree throw. The final period of datable activity was the Middle Iron Age, with the recutting of the earlier ditch. There was no evidence of any later activity at the site.
