Abstract:
Thirty-one archaeological evaluation trenches and eleven geoarchaeological test-pits were excavated. On the eastern part of the site a thick sequence of Quaternary deposits is preserved with clear palaeoenvironmental potential and the possibility for primary context Pleistocene or early Holocene artefacts and ecofacts. Archaeological features including pits, post-holes, gullies and masonry were encountered in eleven of the trenches. A concentration of Middle to Late Iron Age pits in the eastern part of the site suggest proximate settlement. There was no evidence of Romano-British activity contemporary with the nearby villa complex. A group of post-holes are tentatively dated to the medieval period and suggest the presence of a post-built structure of some kind close to the medieval church. Masonry walls at the western end of the site represent the remains of Wales Farm. Several ditches in the central part of the site remain undated.
