Abstract: |
Excavation took place in an area where prehistoric activity was suggested by a crop-mark ring-ditch and a number of artefact finds. A large infilled pond was revealed at the south end of the site. Further to the north a shallow pit contained pottery of Early Saxon and Roman date and a series of intercutting features were interpreted as probable gravel extraction pits, possibly of medieval date. A substantial feature had cut the latter, probably a ditch. A number of smaller linear features, probably post-medieval field boundary ditches, were investigated along with a number of tree boles.
