| Abstract: |
The excavation comprised two trenches. A small quantity of residual Roman material was found although the earliest dated features were from the medieval period. These comprised a series of roadside ditches. The earliest ditch produced no dating evidence but it was found to have been re-dug during the 13th century and was continually re-cut up to the 19th century. The robbed out foundations of a 16th century roadside building were also recorded. Two large pits were found in the eastern part of the site with 19th century pits and post holes and a WWII air raid shelter. [Au(abr)] |
