Abstract: |
An evaluation identified two main areas of activity, in the north-west and south-east of the site. Both of the areas revealed evidence of settlement/occupation dating to the Later Bronze Age/Early Iron Age with associated field systems. It was considered likely that they were different aspects of the same prehistoric landscape and that elements of the field system were likely to exist between the two areas. The extent of the field system was not ascertained. Romano-British features were identified in the same north-eastern area as one of the prehistoric foci. Post-medieval features were also identified in the area of Forty Acre Farm, and gravel quarries had removed any archaeology from the northern part of the site. [Au(adp)] |
