Abstract: |
The excavation produced evidence for a settlement of Late Iron Age and Early Roman date. Features included rectangular and sub-rectangular enclosure ditches and several post hole structures, including one small, circular building with a central post, and five four posters. Other evidence for occupation included a small kiln or furnace associated with metalworking slag, and several storage or rubbish pits. Burial evidence was restricted to a single cremation. The features were overlain by elements of the post-medieval field system and a possible trackway. The western part of the site (Area B) produced a small scatter of worked flints, including several characteristic early Bronze Age pieces. Other flints included a bladelet core of possible Mesolithic date. [Au(abr)] |
