Abstract: |
An undated layer of probable prehistoric date was found above natural brickearth; a feature of probably similar date was also present. Layers and features of possible Iron Age/Romano-British date, and a significant amount of Iron Age/Romano-British pottery were found, indicating considerable activity in that period in the area. Features and layers of Late Saxon/early medieval date were found. A small kiln, which may have been of Iron Age/Romano-British or later date, was archaeologically excavated. A medieval/post-medieval agricultural soil, and other layers of possible medieval date, were observed. Other deposits were of early modern date. All areas observed lay within the early 19th century boundary of Houndwell Field. [Au] |
