Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Excavation by Oxford Archaeology in advance of residential development in Eckington investigated part of a rural settlement dating from the Roman period, situated within a large curvilinear enclosure ditch. The settlement was occupied from the late Iron Age or early Roman period until c. AD 200 but had been substantially affected by ploughing during the medieval and modern periods and few internal features survived. The enclosure was subsequently used for an episode of iron smelting, which was dated by radiocarbon to the mid 7th-8th century. This represents an extremely rare discovery, since a recent survey identifi ed only eight smelting sites in the entire country that date from the early and middle Anglo-Saxon period. | ||
