Abstract: |
Archaeological excavation prior to the proposed residential development of the site confirmed the presence of a 1st to 2nd century ditched enclosure and identified the remains of internal and external structures and hearths. A combination of geophysical survey and excavation revealed that the small corner enclosure lay within a larger ditch-defined field and was possibly approached via a droveway along the southern side of the field. Artefactual evidence provided sufficient dating information for most of the linear components of the site whilst the environmental remains revealed the disposal of cereal-processing waste on domestic hearths.
