Abstract: |
The only archaeological features identified, a ring ditch and a ditch were both relatively poor in artefacts. The ring-ditch was certainly of Bronze Age date, while the ditch may have been of prehistoric date. Late Iron Age pottery recovered from the top fill of the ring-ditch was the only curious discovery. Its principal interest lay in its relative lack of abrasion and its completeness, which suggested that it was deposited and buried within a relatively short period of time. It was possible that these sherds may have represented a secondary deposit which was destroyed when the mound was deliberately slighted. [Au(adp)] |
