| Abstract: |
The archaeological potential of an area proposed for gravel extraction was tested by an evaluation involving the excavation of seven 50m by 2m targeted trial trenches. Trial trenching sampled two conjoined enclosures of Late Iron Age date, previously identified by aerial photography. Re-cuts of the enclosure ditches were recorded, together with evidence of internal structures, represented by post holes. Other, mostly undated ditches and gullies, possibly of prehistoric date, were identified in the other areas trial trenched, indicating a generally limited level of activity outside of the focus of Late Iron Age activity.
