Abstract:
Ten evaluation trenches were excavated revealing archaeological remains in the northeast and southern part of the development site. The remains in the northeastern part of the site consisted of three grave cuts, contained what appeared to be supine burials, a series of postholes forming part of a post built-structure, hearth and several isolated features. The postholes, which contained sherds of early Iron Age date, suggest that some form of settlement was present of the site that may have been bounded to two NE-SW aligned ditches also identified. A series of features were identified in the southern area, consisting of ditches and pits containing deposits of faunal remains, pottery and worked stone. The well-preserved skeletal remains of two pigs, one buried in conjunction with five piglets, were recovered from two ditch terminals, suggesting deliberate deposition. No finds dated to later than the Iron Age were recovered, which suggest a shift in habitation during the Roman and Saxon periods.
