Abstract:
The evaluation trench was located where the proposed Pavilion will be constructed. The area to the north was surveyed using geophysical techniques in order to locate the Roman Road that supposedly passed through the site. The trench revealed topsoil over ploughsoil that contained several sherds of pottery ranging from 18th century to the Roman period in date. A Roman ditch and a pit were sealed by the ploughsoil, as was a late prehistoric/Early Roman ditch. The surface of the natural deposit revealed fragments of worked and burnt flints dating to the Mesolithic/Early Neolithic. The geophysical survey of the playing field indicated features of archaeological potential but failed to locate evidence for the Roman Road. [Au(abr)]
