| Abstract: |
Excavations recovered much structural and environmental evidence and allowed tentative reconstruction of many activities of the Late Neo to Saxon farms. Both the Iron Age and the RB farmsteads were divided into domestic/storage and animal control/farmyard portions. The main villa, of cottage type, was a late 3rd century construction, while the Saxon settlement had seven sunken buildings, two framed structures, and other features. Possible models of the villa estate are offered, the preferred one requiring eight working adults and five extra at harvest. Communications with the region are reviewed and change/continuity discussed. No occupation after 6th century. |
