Abstract: |
Twenty-six trenches were excavated. There was a single Iron Age ditch in Trench 15, although further undated ditches in other trenches may be contemporary. There are two main areas of dating to the Roman period. One comprised probable enclosures and boundary systems, as well as a series of quarry pits. The area appeared to be in use throughout the Roman period. A second area to the east comprises the remains of a Romano-British building of modest status and associated activity. Pottery associated with the building dated exclusively to the 2nd century, while some of the peripheral activity may have dated to the later Roman period. |
