| Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at a proposed development site which lay near the defensive circuit of a late Saxon town. Upper Palaeolithic, Mesolithic and Neolithic finds and evidence of Roman settlement had been recorded in the surrounding area. During the evaluation, a thin scatter of worked flint of probable Mesolithic date and a probable Neolithic hammer stone were found. A network of shallow ditches was interpreted as Romano-British field or plot boundaries, likely to have been associated with a settlement immediately to the south. It was anticipated that groundworks for the proposed development would have only a minimal effect on buried archaeological remains. [Au(abr)] |
