Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
In 2012 an excavation was undertaken in advance of housing development to the south of Banbury Lane, Middleton Cheney, following the discovery of two pits containing Late Neolithic grooved ware pottery during the evaluation. Further definitive evidence of Neolithic activity was not located, but three Early Bronze Age cremation burials lay in the vicinity of the Neolithic features. Two cremation burials were unurned and unaccompanied by grave goods; the third was interred in an inverted collared urn, which also contained a ceramic spoon and a bronze awl. An Early Bronze Age circular post-built structure was located south-east of the cremations. The date of the Neolithic and Bronze Age features has been confirmed by radiocarbon dating. More recent features comprised a Roman field boundary ditch and postholes, remnants of medieval ridge-and-furrow cultivation strips, and a post-medieval inclosure ditch. | ||||
