Abstract:
[SJ 292144]. Second interim report (see abstract 70/821). Fourteen months' work over two winters revealed a complex sequence of defence and occupation from LBA to late-Roman date. The first defence was a slight bank fronted by a double post-row. After a fire the posts were replaced by a continuous palisade and boulders revetted the rear of the rampart. Further renovations were made when rectangular houses with Malvern stamped pottery was in use. There eventually followed at least nine wattle-walled circular houses, 4-7m in diameter. Deserted for most of the Roman period, the site appears to have been refortified at end of 4th century, possibly with interval towers connected by raised timber walkways. Many LBA artefacts, nearly all domestic, belong to the rampart's earliest phases.
