Abstract:		 Archaeological observation and recording was undertaken during groundworks for residential development. There was evidence of Roman occupation on the site, possibly dating from the 2nd century to the 4th century AD. A large quantity of Roman tile and other finds recovered indicated the presence of a nearby building or buildings. A stone-lined channel appeared to have been the remains of a drying oven, perhaps a corn drier, associated with a working hollow. The oven structure cut through an earlier linear feature. A circular copper alloy brooch, of a type mostly dating to the 2nd century AD, was found in the hollow. The remains of two late medieval or post-medieval boundary ditches were also identified. They were depicted on the 19th century Tithe Map, but were undoubtedly earlier in origin. [Au(adp)]
