Abstract: |
<summary>A varied programme of archaeological work was carried out on possible sites along the line of a proposed road improvement scheme. The findings confirmed the existence of a probable Bronze Age barrow with a possible associated cemetery of later date. A Romano-British farmstead and a possible Iron Age predecessor, and a medieval farmstead within a prehistoric field system were also recorded. Much useful information has yet to be gathered and a comprehensive scheme of excavation, survey and recording is put forward, ahead of destruction of the sites by development. {italon}AIP{italoff}{spacea} |
