Abstract:
Salvage recording produced finds dating from the Roman period, but most of the finds were post-medieval in date. A series of plough furrows were excavated, visible as buried archaeological deposits and earthworks, documented as an open field system enclosed in 1854. The presence of a low level of Roman pottery in the area was significant. Several road surfaces were observed where the pipeline crossed the line of a Roman road. Although dated to the post-medieval period, they may have represented continued use of Roman surfaces. The site of a World War II anti-aircraft battery was located from discussion with local residents. [Au(abr)]
