| Abstract: |
An agreed sample of 3% was examined by trial trenching. Archaeological deposits included a ditch with pottery dating to the late Iron Age period in Trench 2 and large ditches with Roman Severn Valley ware in Trench 5. A single sherd of Roman pottery was also recovered from a possible feature at the southern end of Trench 3. Although structural remain such as walls or post holes were not present the amount of late Iron Age pottery recovered from the ditch in Trench 2 suggests that occupation was most probably present in the immediate area. Substantial stone drains were present in Trenches 1 and 2 , the stratigraphy and construction of these also suggest a possibly early date though this was not certain. [Au(abr)] |
