Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken in advance of the construction of 37 dwellings and associated works. A total of 12 trenches were excavated, all contained archaeological features. A cluster of inhumations were observed, one of which produced pottery dating from the early Anglo-Saxon period. A series of ditches, pits and post holes and a possible round house were observed, some of which contained late prehistoric or Anglo-Saxon pottery. A curvilinear ditch in the southwest of the site contained Bronze Age pottery in its terminal end. The site appeared to contain evidence for occupation in a number of periods, including the Bronze Age, and perhaps the Iron Age and Anglo-Saxon/medieval periods. [Au(abr)] |
