Abstract:
An excavation undertaken prior to the development of land for housing located part of a Late Bronze Age enclosure ditch with some evidence of an internal bank. The site was interpreted as a mini-hillfort or elite residence of a type particular to eastern England. The largest pottery collection for the period in the county was recovered and an important assemblage of animal bone was also retrieved. Early and Late Iron Age pits were recorded both inside and outside the circuit of the ditch and a number of Late Iron Age working hollows were also found. Medieval ridge and furrow overlay the prehistoric deposits and some modern quarrying and pit digging had disturbed parts of the site. [Au(abr)]
