Abstract: |
The works, involving the excavation of eight trial trenches, were carried out in February & March 2022 in order to evaluate the site of a proposed new racing stable complex. The results revealed a series of Late Iron Age to early Roman ditches, defining at least two enclosures, and an associated trackway. Three pits of the same date were also found, one of which may be the stokehole to a corn-dryer. In the light of these results, it is recommended that further archaeological work be undertaken on the site should the development proceed further. |
