Abstract:
TL 204713. A complex of cropmarks on Ouse gravels was examined, although results were limited by developers requirements that trenches should not exceed 18in depth, and the soil was too acid to preserve bone or metal. Of several presumed barrow-circles (the first cemetery of this type known in the county) the most complex proved to have begun as a stake-circle barrow (Ashbee type B2), with a fine maritime type beaker, amber bead and flint blade in a pit. The area was surrounded by an outer ditch. Later, a new ditch was dug, related to the burial of a primary series urn containing a cremation and the tip of an arrowhead. Several other pits could not be examined. The beaker provides surprising evidence for early settlement of Dutch Beaker people in the Ouse valley and a reminder of early littoral settlements now lost by drowning of the coastline. The rectangular Iron Age enclosure contained two small (c 22ft diameter) huts, other less determinate structures and a little pottery of Belgic type. A pit alignment and a metalled road were also located.
