Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at a proposed development site where prehistoric flints, Roman material and Saxon artefacts had been recorded during fieldwork in the 1970s. The course of an alleged Roman road crossed the site. During the evaluation, a pit containing a small quantity of Neolithic flintwork and pottery was revealed, and Roman features which appeared to represent an extensive settlement complex were recorded. Late Iron Age/Early Roman features included two ditches, a gully and a post hole. Coins dating from the 2nd-4th centuries were found, and prehistoric and Roman pottery was recovered. A small number of post-medieval sherds were also noted. Two focal areas of archaeological interest were identified at the site. [Au(adp)] |
