Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken in advance of a planning application for the erection of a dwelling. Four trenches were opened. The evaluation revealed a large north-south aligned ditch, possibly a boundary ditch, dating to the late Roman period, and the remains of an east-west aligned Roman road or trackway surface. An undated gully and a pit were also identified in the course of the work. A quantity of iron slag was recovered, suggesting an industrial site of unknown status nearby. The Roman features were sealed beneath ploughsoil horizons of probable medieval date, as medieval sherds were incorporated in their make up. [Au(abr)] |
