Abstract: |
An excavation was carried out at a site which lay along the projected line of a Roman road, close to a site where Late Iron Age occupation had been recorded. No evidence of the road was observed, suggesting that it may have run through an adjacent plot, or may not have run as far north as the site. However, a major Middle/Late Iron Age enclosure complex consisting of a bi-vallate circuit was discovered. Features included post pits and a stake hole, which may have represented part of a gateway structure. No direct evidence of occupation was observed, although the large quantity of occupation-derived material recovered, particularly within the inner ditch, attested to settlement within the enclosure.
