Abstract: |
Two further phases (5 and 6) of archaeological excavation in advance of mineral extraction have extended the range for features previously recorded, to include several discrete clusters of unenclosed and only very loosely organized late Bronze Age settlement. A substantial pottery assemblage was recovered (though very few other finds) and the chronology is supported by five radiocarbon dates centred on the 9th and 10th centuries cal BC. This represents a significant addition to the variety of settlement archaeology of this period in the region. Shallow ditches and gullies, although undated in this area, also appear to extend the late Iron Age or early Roman landscape seen to the west. |
