Abstract: |
A subsoil deposit was found across the whole of the site except in one trench and five of the test pits to the north. This produced burnt flint and retouched flint tools indicating that ploughing activity during the prehistoric period had reworked the subsoil. Some of the trenches produced Roman and later finds, probably deposited through later reworking of the plough soil. The most significant archaeological features were found in the southern part of the site where the prehistoric plough soil was truncated by six linear gullies. These contained burnt flint and retouched flint tools and were interpreted as prehistoric, possibly Bronze Age, field drainage ditches. Post-medieval plough marks and field drains were found in all trenches across the site. [Au] |
