Abstract:
The first phase of investigation was undertaken prior to proposed mineral extraction across the site, identifying two areas of Archaeological Significance (AAS). AAS2 revealed two phases of well-preserved Iron Age landscape and settlement evidence. The earlier phase contained settlement features, whilst the second phase contained a rectangular enclosure, bounded by a substantial ditch, probably designed to contain stock. An isolated large feature, interpreted as a well, was fully excavated during the first season and during the 2000 season, a second enclosure was identified and two clusters of pits. AAS1 contained parallel-sided linear cuts, believed to have been bedding trenches that formed three alignments representing three chronological phases of activity. There was also an infrequent distribution of small pits and postholes, some of which were associated with the linear systems. Pottery of the Romano-British period was recovered from a number of features. [Au(adp)]
