Abstract:
<summary>An evaluation comprising fieldwalking reconnaissance, magnetometer survey and selective trial excavation to the west of the walled town revealed evidence of extra-mural activity, including masonry. A series of rectilinear enclosures bounded by ditches, with some containing possible circular structures, lay immediately to the west of the walled area; these appeared to pre-date the laying out of the defences. They were bordered by a trackway which was joined at the north by another running from the north-west corner of the walled area to connect with a large area of extra-mural settlement further to the west; there the trackway divided around a series of enclosures containing timber and stone buildings. In some cases the original boundary ditches appeared to have been replaced by fences and limestone walls. The area appeared to have been primarily agricultural. {italon}Sec(abr/adp)(10b){italoff}
