Abstract: |
The archaeological works revealed relatively well preserved and significant archaeological deposits, which included a cut feature associated with a large expanse of fill, a possible stone surface/bedding layer or rubble spread and numerous other soil and stone deposits. Limited investigation of the features within the trench indicated multiple phases of activity and a moderate to high degree of complexity. The recovered pottery assemblage suggested that the archaeological deposits were likely to derive from the 2nd century AD (Roman), although the features also contained residual early Iron Age pottery sherds. Other recovered artefacts included bone fragments, oyster shell, iron nails, CBM and industrial waste (slag). |
