Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation, consisting of the excavation of c3400m of linear trenches, has shown a complex system of ditches and field boundaries. Some of these field systems belonged to the post-medieval period and could be matched to the first edition OS map of 1886 which showed 'Walk Barn', identified in excavation. Many others were on different alignments and/or had paler, leached fills. Finds from isolated contexts indicated that there had been activity here during the Early Bronze Age, Roman and Anglo-Saxon periods. Further excavation had been proposed in three areas to examine the features in the vicinity of datable artefacts found in sealed contexts and to look at the nature and orientation of land boundaries in greater detail.
