Abstract: |
Possible archaeological remains in the form of a stone or masonry linear structure and ditches or similar structures were identified in the northwest corner of the survey area. Evidence for possible kilns or related debris deposits were found at three separate locations within the survey area. The remains of a kiln with a characteristic magnetic anomaly was found at location 6k. Sherds of pottery found on the ground surface during the survey, and by a subsequent field-walking survey, supported a Roman date for pottery production at the site. The north-eastern corner of the survey area contained evidence that could be interpreted as a settlement of other similar human activity although this was by no means certain. Evidence for a possible track and various phases of ploughing were also recorded. [Au] |
