Abstract: |
The evaluation revealed an important group of four Neolithic pits. The features appeared to form a 'ritual pit group' due to them containing deliberatly broken pottery and large pebbles being placed at the base of one pit. The pits contained the following: charcoal (which was radiocarbon dated), struck flint debitage, pebbles, slate and charcoal. They also produced the largest Neolithic pottery assemblage in South West England. [Au(adp)] |
