Abstract:
An application in advance of an extension of an existing gravel pit comprised aerial photograph analysis, magnetometer survey and targeted trenching. Results indicated some activity during the Mesolithic period, Neolithic and Early Bronze Age; two ring ditches being thought likely to be Early Bronze Age. An enclosure was dated to the Middle or Late Bronze Age, and occasional features of probable Late Bronze Age and Middle Iron Age date were also excavated. An unenclosed Late Iron Age settlement had an elaborate enclosure system superimposed on it at the beginning of the Roman period, and Late Roman activity was also present. A small assemblage of Early Saxon pottery recovered from the southern field was thought likely to represent casual loss in the vicinity of a settlement site. [Au(abr)]
