Abstract: |
Eighteen trenches were mechanically excavated, revealing remains dating from the Bronze Age to the post-medieval period or later. Three Late Bronze Age possible inurned cremations were identified. Several prehistoric ditches were revealed, perhaps representing further elements of a Late Iron Age field system. An undated rectangular enclosure was tentatively identified. An undated arrangement of at least nine post holes probably representing the site of a structure, perhaps a building or fenced enclosure. A pair of parallel ditches perhaps delineated a possible Romano-British droveway, while a single post-medieval or later ditch probably represent a former boundary. [Au(abr)] |
