| Abstract: |
The site lay in an area of significant archaeological potential straddling two of the Thames gravel terraces, with known archaeological remains including settlement and ritual activity/monuments dating from the Neolithic period onwards. Redeposited Bronze Age finds were found in later deposits, these were likely to have derived from known settlement/occupation immediately north of the evaluated area. A clearly defined spread of Late Iron Age/Roman activity was located in the northeast corner of the evaluation area comprising pits, ditches and a probable kiln/oven. These were dated by contained pottery to1st/2nd century AD. This spread of activity probably represented the southwest limit of the known Romano-British rural settlement otherwise contained within SAM LO61. The post-medieval period was represented by a single land drain densely infilled with partially articulated horse bones (mainly skulls and long-bones). Dating was based on the level of bone preservation. [Au(adp)] |
