Abstract:		 Excavations by Albion Archaeology in 2007 and 2008 at Hill Field, Wilshamstead, revealed the remains of a low-status late Iron Age to Roman enclosed farmstead. Ceramic evidence indicates that occupation was principally restricted to the 1st and 2nd centuries AD, during which the farmstead had a pastoral basis. With an increase in the number of water-holes, the enclosures remained in use through to the mid-Saxon period, serving perhaps as a temporary camp for shepherds and drovers. One of the water-holes was maintained over a long period before being transformed into a well; this was in use during the 9th to 11th centuries, probably on a seasonal basis.
