Abstract: |
The evidence obtained from the archaeological watching brief suggested that both Romano-British and medieval settlement remains survived beneath the village of Greinton. The ditch was interpreted as a boundary marker. The presence of the burial also indicated that although it was likely to be situated on the periphery of a settlement, the focus of the settlement would be located somewhere nearby. The burial itself was orientated north-south, indicating a pagan burial of probable 4th century date. The discovery of the medieval post hole also indicated that medieval structural remains still survived beneath the village.[Au(abr)] |
