Abstract:
Report on an archaeological evaluation undertaken in 1997 at Laceat Hill, to the east of Brougham, in advance of a proposed (but later abandoned) development. The results indicated the presence of an enclosure or linear boundary of some sort, two phases of which were identified, the second including the incorporation of an entranceway with a stone-lined drainage gully routed through the gap. A radiocarbon sample produced an Early Bronze Age date. Two small, isolated features downslope of the enclosure produced a total of eight sherds of Early to Middle Bronze Age pottery. To the north of the enclosure, the possible truncated remails of cremations were identified, possibly from a small cemetery; a radiocarbon sample indicated a date roughly contemporary with the enclosure. A line of oval pits on unknown date was identified to the east of the enclosure. Includes separately authored reports on
