| Abstract: |
An open area excavation of 0.125ha was undertaken as a planning condition in advance of the construction of a planned retail park as part of the new Reading Football Club Stadium development. Three ditches, all probably of early Romano-British date, were identified, they were probably components of a ditched field system. Residual prehistoric pottery was also found, of Late Bronze Age date, and there was a possible Mesolithic and Early Neolithic component in the worked flint assemblage. [Au(abr)] |
