Abstract:
The fieldwork comprised the excavation of 14 trenches, measuring 30m by 1.8m, in the locations shown on Fig. 2. Trench 1 was reduced in length to 27m due to the presence of a tree to the northwest. Trenches were set out on OS National Grid (NGR) co-ordinates using Leica GPS and surveyed in accordance with CA Technical Manual 4 Survey Manual. All trenches were excavated by mechanical excavator equipped with a toothless grading bucket. All machine excavation was undertaken under constant archaeological supervision to the top of the first significant archaeological horizon or the natural substrate, whichever was encountered first. Where archaeological deposits were encountered they were excavated by hand in accordance with CA Technical Manual 1: Fieldwork Recording Manual. Deposits were assessed for their palaeoenvironmental potential in accordance with CA Technical Manual 2: The Taking and Processing of Environmental and Other Samples from Archaeological Sites and no deposits were identified that required sampling. All artefacts recovered were processed in accordance with Technical Manual 3 Treatment of Finds Immediately after Excavation. The archive and artefacts from the evaluation are currently held by CA at their offices in Milton Keynes. Subject to the agreement of the legal landowner the artefacts will be deposited with Warwickshire Museum, along with the site archive. A summary of information from this project, set out within Appendix C, will be entered onto the OASIS online database of archaeological projects in Britain. The evaluation identified a concentration of archaeological remains within the central and northern portions of the site comprising ditches and a pit dating to the Roman period. A single pit containing Middle Iron Age pottery was revealed at the western limits of the site. Where the archaeological features were identified by the trenching there was a very poor correlation with the results of the geophysical survey. Only one ditch was seen to continue into another trench, as such the ditches do not form a coherent pattern suggesting smaller field enclosures as opposed to larger field systems. Two potential phases of enclosure were identified on the basis of orientation of the ditches.
