Abstract: |
A large ditch revealed during the excavation. Dating evidence, its course and the existence of a former bank were recorded. Four post hole structures and a few isolated features of both Middle Iron Age and Late Iron Age date were located west of the ditch. The occurrence of animal burials and pits containing large amounts of pig bone were suggestive of feasting. Stratigraphically the pits were assigned to the Roman period or later. With the exception of a few fragments of abraded tegula, no Roman pottery was recovered from. A small iron ring was found with an animal bone in one of the pits. [Au] |
