Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Late Neolithic/Beaker occupation was found beneath one of the Roman buildings. The earliest Roman phase may have been a single-roomed house. which was extended in the mid-second century building phase. The main villa house, incorporating a bath suite, was built during the mid-second century, together with a timber shrine and various agricultural buildings. The baths, and probably the main house, fell into disuse in the later second century and were demolished. The site was reorganised with the construction of a temple of Romano-Celtic plan and of a new agricultural building late in the second century: the original simple house may now have been the only residence. Around AD280 there were alterations to the temple, possibly related to a large pit group of pottery and coins of this date. The simple house and agricultural buildings fell into progressive disuse during the third and fourth centuries, but the temple may have been standing after AD400. The function of the religious foci on rural estates is discussed. Some sixth and seventh century pottery indicated Saxon activity | |||
