Abstract: |
Archaeological monitoring and subsequent excavation at the site of a quarry extension at Norley in Cheshire revealed two areas of heavily plough-truncated features. These consisted of slots, ditches and lines of pits delineating a series of enclosures. Some limited structural remains were noted within one of the enclosures; pottery finds indicated a Romano-British date for these features. The pottery assemblage, although small, was of some significance and suggested either relatively high status for the site or a preference for Roman eating habits. |
