SP 289624. Site 83, one of the hundreds of occupation sites revealed by aerial survey of the West Midlands, contained a henge, a Neolithic habitation site, a ring ditch, rectangular EIA enclosures and (unexcavated) a cursus and pit alignment. The henge, closely paralleled at Dorchester (Oxfordshire) showed three phases, the ?middle one giving a 14C date of c 2400 BC. Storage pits of two types contained ?Neolithic material, and a habitation site yielded a rectangular structure of two main phases and Peterborough pottery of c 2000 BC. An ?EBA complex ring-ditch structure was approached by a ritual or functional avenue. Several large pits appeared to be for water-storage in Neolithic times. A bronze chisel of LBA type, c 700 BC, found stratified above EIA pottery in a pit, raises the possibility of a very early Iron Age date for this feature. Part of a Romano-British field system was also investigated. |
