Abstract: |
An archaeological excavation of two sites to the east of Marsh Whim Farm was undertaken prior to the proposed construction of a new highway. Numerous features were excavated but few contained dating evidence. The pottery that was recovered was all of Romano-British date, mostly of 2nd to 3rd century date, with two mortaria fragments of 3rd to mid 4th century date. In general all finds suggested a low status, rural site. A geophysical survey was also undertaken, but disappointingly failed to locate evidence of the ditches excavated. [Au(adp)] |
