Abstract:
As the proposed development was located near significant Late Iron Age and Romano-British occupation deposits an archaeological assessment was carried out. Although only limited areas were investigated, well preserved ditches and other cut features were identified, providing further evidence for Romano-British settlement. Amongst the finds assemblage from the evaluation, a box flue tile and the base of an amphora provided further evidence of the relatively high status of the Roman settlement which was probably the centre of a villa estate. One or more enclosures, located on the periphery of the main occupation area, suggested an industrial usage. Evidence of ridge and furrow reflected medieval open field cultivation, which had caused differential truncation of Roman deposits and features [Au(adp)]
