Abstract: |
As previous work had identified Bronze Age and Roman remains associated with probable field boundaries and settlement, an archaeological evaluation was carried out prior to development. A number of ditch alignments were encountered concentrated in the SE and W parts of the site, with associated isolated pits and postholes. A number of tree-throw holes were found across the site. A small quantity of Romano-British pottery was found in the South-East part of the site, close to previously recovered Romano-British features and pottery. Sherds of Middle Bronze Age Deverel-Rimbury type Bucket Urn and burnt flint was present in the western part of the site. These finds were from close to the inhumation burial, possibly Bronze Age in date, found in the previous evaluation. Although waterlogged deposits had previously been encountered, none were present in this evaluation.[Au(abr)] |
