Abstract:
The evaluation located a total of 66 archaeological features, though only ten contained dateable pottery. The features ranged in date from the Early Bronze Age to the Romano-British period. Additionally, Mesolithic to post-medieval finds were found in topsoil/subsoil horizons. Archaeological remains found included an undated cremation burial, a palaeochannel deposit and a ring ditch. The palaeochannel contained pottery dating from the Early/Mid Iron Age to the Romano-British period. The ring ditch was situated in the extreme south-east of the site. The only datable sherd of pottery was a fragment of a collared urn from the Early Bronze Age. Of thirty-four linear features found in the northern third of the site, some appeared to reflect existing field boundaries, while others may have represented an earlier field system.[Au(abr)]
