Abstract:		 The period of direct Iron Age occupation in the vicinity of Greenhouse Farm was seen to span the period from c.600 BS to c.100AD. An estimation of the approximate area likely to contain settlement was 20-25 hectares, though spanning perhaps half a millennium. The maximum extent of the settlement at any one time was thought to be no more than 7-10 hectares. The model suggested by the results was of open settlement in the Early Iron Age, set within and surrounded by ditched fields, with a possible contraction into deep-ditched enclosures in the Mid/Late Iron Age. The settlement was abandoned in the Early Roman period. [Au(abr)]
