Abstract: |
An excavation was carried out within a strip along the eastern end of a proposed clay extraction site. Trenches excavated within this strip during earlier evaluation of a wider area had revealed parts of a complex pattern of ditches and other features, some probably relating to Romano-British field systems identified to the east. The dates of many features remained uncertain. During the excavation, no evidence was found for significant pre-Roman activity in the area, and it was concluded that the ditches and other features recorded were unlikely to have been prehistoric. A small open-area excavation revealed part of the denuded remains of a timber structure, which was probably of Romano-British date. [Au(adp)] |
