Abstract: |
<summary>An evaluation of land proposed for gravel extraction to the north and west of Cleveland Farm, an extensive area of Iron Age and Roman occupation previously investigated, was undertaken. Known crop marks were examined, one of which formed part of a possible prehistoric enclosure, whilst the others were found to be of natural origin. Elsewhere, several infilled ditches of unknown date were recorded. The main area of activity lay to the northern end of the applications area, where earthworks were revealed to be the remains of a substantial Roman building and boundary ditches. Waterlogged deposits recorded in several trenches offered the potential for palaeoenvironmental studies. {italon}?Au{italoff} |
