Abstract:
Excavations at the site revealed part of a Romano-British field system with a complex arrangement of intercutting ditches and pits. There was no evidence for occupation on the site although a single oven was found which was probably a corn drier, and may have been connected with occupation beyond the southern limits of the excavation. The field system was in use throughout the Roman period and showed evidence of re-cutting on the same alignment suggesting a relatively stable organised landscape. Also found were four burials, two of which were heavily disturbed by modern ploughing. These burials were dated to the Roman period by their association with 2nd -3rd century pottery. It was likely that they were from the settlement that farmed the area. It was difficult to determine the full extent of the original cemetery but it may have been dispersed, covering a large area.
