Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Excavations in 2005 and 2006 to mitigate the impact on archaeological remains of a flood alleviation scheme at the site of Beam Washlands, Dagenham, revealed late Iron Age or early Roman enclosure ditches, settlement features, such as pits and post-holes, and a concentration of hearth or oven bases, which may relate to pottery production. A more open area to the south of the enclosures contained water-holes, field boundaries and gullies pertaining to agricultural activity, and a cremation cemetery that was used from the 1st century BC to the late 1st century AD. The enclosures were remodelled in the early 2nd century. Two pottery kilns were functioning during the second quarter of the 2nd century and were used largely to fire sandy grey wares. Potters manufactured ledge-rimmed and necked jars, bead-rimmed and plain-rimmed dishes, and a range of lids, among other forms. Activity declined after the late 2nd century, but major boundary ditches were maintained and a few pits dug in the 3rd and 4th centuries. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
