Abstract: |
Excavations at Denny End revealed evidence of occupation from the early Anglo-Saxon period partially sealed beneath remnant ridge and furrow. The principal feature was a shallow Sunken Feature Building, or Grubenhaus, with platform walls and entranceway (in association with pits, a large posthole and worn or cut hollows). The features represented an isolated domestic/work unit, which in part may have comprised an element of processing. Separated and to the west was a three-sided post-built structure. Finds included sizeable pottery and bone assemblages, loomweights, a spindle whorl, a granite grinding stone and three bone tools. [Au] |
