Abstract:
During an evaluation at the proposed site of a reservoir, features were recorded in some of the areas where cropmarks and anomalies had been detected during previous geophysical and fieldwalking surveys, and on aerial photographs. A dense scatter of Roman pottery had also been noted at the site. Features included intercutting 2nd-4th century ditches, two possible pits and two foundation trenches. Roman, early medieval and post-medieval pottery was recovered, and the terminal end of an enclosure ditch was found to contain pottery of the 5th-3rd centuries BC. A further linear feature containing Iron Age pottery was also recorded. Animal bones, particularly those of cattle and sheep, were recovered; some displayed butchery and gnawing marks. [Au(adp)]
