Abstract: |
The excavation revealed archaeological remains dating to the Late Iron Age, Roman and medieval periods. Three large trenches were excavated. Trench one contained gullies, pits, post holes and a midden layer, all dating to the 1st century AD. Structural evidence in the form of a fragment of flint and clay wall, and a possible linear row of post holes and a north-east to south-west orientated trench with post holes at either end. Late Roman activity was confined to one mid-Roman post hole and one late Roman pit. Two medieval rubbish pits were also excavated in trenches one and two and a later post-medieval fence line was identified in trench three. [Au(adp)] |
