Abstract: |
John Moore Heritage Services carried out an archaeological evaluation of the proposed development site, from the 9th April - 6th May 2009. Thirty trenches, totalling 900 metres in length, were excavated to reveal the underlying natural geology or archaeological horizons. This was part of an approximate overall 2% coverage of the site area.The evaluation revealed that the area had seen activity since the early Neolithic. A large enclosed middle-late Iron Age settlement existed to the south of the area and partially within the southern extent of the site. Its extramural activity extended for several hundred metres to the north.Later an important Roman settlement was established on the site. |
