Abstract: |
An archaeological field evaluation was carried out in advance of the proposed construction of new sport facilities at a school. The earliest excavated features, dated by pottery to the Late Iron Age/early Romano-British period, were part of the foundation trench or gully of a round house of c.7m in diameter, along with an associated gully and post holes of a more substantial ditch. This ditch could have defined one side of a settlement enclosure enclosing the round house. These remains were overlain by boundary features associated with the Deserted Medieval Village of Tranby, parts of which were known from aerial photographs. Ditches or gullies which may have flanked a track were recorded, with a pit or the terminal of a further ditch to the west. Pottery suggested that the boundaries were established in the 9th to 11th centuries. Trench 2 in the eastern area of the school identified a D-shaped ditch which could have been 13th-14th century in date or early medieval or even pre-medieval. [Au(adp)] |
