Abstract: |
A programme of archaeological trial trenching and was undertaken in advance of a new feeder road on behalf of Warwickshire County Council. Three areas of archaeological activity were recorded. In Area B an isolated pit contained poorly preserved late Iron Age or early Roman (transitional) pottery along with heat-cracked pebbles which seems likely to have been an outlier to a settlement site outside the area examined. In Area A the basal parts of probable Roman field system were recorded which included some residual transitional pottery. A post-medieval field system was found in the flatter, low lying part of the site. Area C contained a characteristically prehistoric burnt deposit, although due to the later ploughing activity it could not be more securely dated. |
