| Abstract: |
An archaeological excavation was undertaken in advance of residential development. Prehistoric flint tools had been found in the village and a major Roman road passed through, or close by, the site. Adjacent to the investigation area was the parish church, a modern building that was perhaps located on the site of a Norman church. Previous investigations at the site had revealed a series of Roman ditches, mediaeval clay extraction pits and a cremation of probable prehistoric date. As a result of these discoveries, an excavation 10 sq. m in area and centred on the cremation was undertaken. However, apart from a modern gully no archaeological remains were identified. This suggested that the cremation was isolated or, at least, not part of a compact cemetery. [Au(abr)] |
