which reports that the entire assemblage dates to the MBA

which notes sparse data indicating that trees and grassy areas were in the vicinity prior to the barrow's construction

Recent excavations at Balksbury Camp have resulted in the acquisition of new data concerning the construction and initial use of the enclosure. These include a series of radiocarbon dates which show that the site was probably built in the eight--ninth centuries BC and that the enclosure circuit was enhanced and maintained for approximately 200 years. During this period there was very little or no settlement within the enclosure; instead activities taking place at the site resulted in the rapid accumulation of a `midden' behind the enclosure bank. Includes separately authored reports on:

which records 2,891 sherds mostly dating from the LBA/EIA

which analyses some 1,551 flints

which discusses the pre- and post-enclosure landscape based on evidence from mollusca

which suggests that the woodland composition (including oak, maple, ash and hazel) was probably similar throughout the enclosure's occupation (LBA/EIA)

which reports that cattle and sheep/goat dominated the assemblage

Discusses the archaeological sequence, economy and environmental impact of Clatterford Roman Villa, based upon the results of a recent geophysical survey. The investigation revealed the plan of the later villa complex and suggested that the villa, or its proto-settlement, may date to the time of the Roman Conquest. Later in the first century AD a road was established across the valley bottom. During the third century AD extensive surfaces were laid out over the fringe of the valley bottom, adjacent to the villa. It is believed that these might have been stockyards. The villa was abandoned in the fourth century. Includes separately authored reports on:

which records 919 sherds of pottery, more than half of which were Vectis ware

which suggests that the landscape was a pastoral habitat, with clear evidence that some remaining local ash, lime and hazel trees were felled following the expansion of the pastoral economy. Cereal grains were also recovered

which records twenty-one individuals (eleven adult, five children)

which discusses the five Saxon graves

which documents 231 sherds of pottery, mostly of a medieval or Mid-Saxon date

which records finds including: a bone needle; a bone pin beater; a copper alloy strip; two joining fragments of bun-shaped hollow-blown light blue glass; and a small fragment of light blue vessel glass

Largely historical, considers the extent of the priory's estate as described in a survey of c. 1340--1342.

Discusses prehistoric flint mining and knapping in the area.
