Abstract:
Eight trial trenches totalling 240m in length and 2.2m wide were machine excavated. These were randomly located in order to gain a representative sample of the archaeological potential along the application area. Also fourteen geotechnical test pits were monitored as a part of the watching brief for the site. Trenches 2,3,4 and 5 were located on the higher ground of the site and revealed archaeological features dating between the Mid-Late Iron Age and Early Roman periods. Trench 5 produced the densest clustering of features. Here a prehistoric gully was bisected by a linear alignment of pits or postholes of uncertain date. Two small postholes that date to the Early Roman period were also recorded in this trench. The features located in the other trenches included small gullies and a larger ditch feature. Together these features suggest that the higher ground on the site may be the focus of activities associated with small farmstead settlement. The watching brief recorded additional Early Roman activity near to Trench 3 and some twelfth to fourteenth century pottery was recorded in the topsoil next to Main Street.
