Abstract: |
The archaeological watching brief revealed prehistoric remains in the vicinity that comprised Iron Age salt production sites. These sites were located along watercourses that also provided the same suitable conditions for salt extraction during the Romano-British period. Concentrations of Romano-British pottery had also been found to the south of the village and may have indicated settlements. During the medieval period the village was the focus of settlement and initially contained two churches, of which only one survived today. Earthworks of this period were apparent in and to the north of Addlethrope and comprised complex field systems. The watching brief identified a 16th -17th century ditch that probably represented a former boundary, and a modern backfilled pit/depression. A small quantity of post-medieval pottery and animal bone was retrieved during this investigation. [Au(abr)] |
