| Abstract: |
Following the results of a desktop assessment and fieldwalking survey an archaeological evaluation was undertaken. The previous assessment had revealed that the present field layout originated from the layout of a medieval field system. The fieldwalking had revealed a scatter of prehistoric artefacts suggestive of some form of occupation. The evaluation, which consisted of five trenches, revealed evidence for the medieval utilisation of the site in the form of boundary ditches and trackways. More significant was the discovery of Iron Age ditches and post holes which were indicative of some form of settlement enclosure. [AIP] |
