Abstract: |
A single trial l trench was excavated in order to fulfil a condition upon planning permission for the construction of a new classroom. A short length of Late Iron Age/Early Roman ditch was uncovered. This probably belonged to an enclosed settlement that was first discovered in the 1930's and partly excavated in the earlly 1950's. The ditch contained an unusually high concentration of 1st century pottery amounting to 27.5 kilos. The comparatively large size of the body sherds suggested that settlement occupation was nearby.
