Abstract: |
During the course of the evaluation, the course of a Late Bronze Age circular enclosure ditch found in the Stage 1 excavation was revealed along with a significant portion of its interior. The diameter of the enclosure was estimated at c120 metres. A curvilinear feature was recorded inside the eastern side of the enclosure and was demonstrated to post-date the filling of the enclosure ditch. Ditches flanking the north side of the Site were also found to contain medieval pottery. 30 metres to the east of the Late Bronze Age enclosure, discrete lengths of curving ditches possibly representing a smaller enclosure were observed. A line of three post holes, running between two ditch terminals were perhaps associated with a postulated enclosure and were found to contain pottery and quern fragments.[Au(abr)] |
