Abstract: |
Four archaeological evaluation trenches were excavated prior to development. Archaeological remains, including a late Saxon ditch, a number of medieval ditches and the foundations of a Victorian house were discovered. A Roman brooch of 1st century date was found in a medieval ditch fill. Three new types of late Saxon pottery were identified in the small assemblage of material from the excavations. Archaeological features on the site, although plentiful, appeared to represent agricultural activity rather than evidence for occupation. However, the potential impact of the proposed development on any surviving archaeological remains would be high. [Au(adp)] |
