Abstract: |
An evaluation was undertaken in advance of the proposed construction of six rectilinear buildings of residential accommodation and working space. Nine trenches were excavated. The evaluation recorded an alluvial channel containing an alluvial deposit sequence at least of Late Bronze Age date. Extensive Roman deposits of mid 1st to 4th century date were found across the site. These included evidence for buildings, remains of a wooden structure (probably a revetment) on the bank of the fluvial channel and 3rd/4th century reclamation of the channel. The post-Roman archaeology consisted of 'dark earth'-type agricultural soils dating from the late 15th century and buildings with backplot features from the 17th century onwards. The survival of a 17th century wooden stave floor and timber lined pit was notable. [Au(abr)] |
