Abstract: |
Limited archaeological works have taken place in the immediate vicinity of the site, although field walking on the site itself and an adjacent field suggest the presence of a Roman settlement, likely given the presence of building slate and tiles, a villa site. The recovered assemblage also included a not insignificant amount of Neolithic worked flints, demonstrating occupation on and in the vicinity of the site from Prehistory. The presence of a suspected Roman villa on the site suggests that it is likely to be of at least regional importance, and recommendations for further archaeological work would include geophysical survey at a minimum, with the potential for evaluation trenching dependant on the results of this survey and the proposals. The archaeological potential for the site is deemed to be high. |
