Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was carried out in advance of proposed development and consisted of nine trial trenches. Scattered, undated remains were revealed beneath the farmyard area, in the form of small pits, although large-scale disturbance was evident. A single ditch provided a later Iron Age date and a collection of snails from within its fill also gave some idea of the contemporary environment. Other finds including a collection of heat-cracked stones and animal bone indicated nearby settlement. Evidence of deep, possibly medieval, ploughing was encountered in the pasture field which contained slight earthwork remains of the ridge and furrow. Beneath the plough zone a small scattered group of undated features (small pits and post holes) was revealed. [Au(abr)]
