Abstract:
The archaeological investigations revealed evidence of human activity in the locality from the prehistoric, Roman and post-medieval periods. Prehistoric activity is evidenced through the presence of residual finds within the Roman contexts only. One sherd of probable Late Bronze Age to Early Iron Age pottery alongside one of possible late Iron Age date together with a retouched blade dated to the Neolithic or Bronze Age were recovered from the pits and nearby tree root activity. Roman activity appears to begin with a series of early quarry pit dated to around the 1st-2nd centuries. The pits gradually silted up prior to a secondary phase of quarry activity which was observed in the same localised area, dating to around 2nd-3rd centuries. These later pits were gradually filled by a series of dumps and spreads until the 4th century when the area was utilised for the disposal of rubbish. It was during this period that a boundary ditch was established immediately east of the area of pitting. A 18th-19th century pit, along with a layer of plough soil, attest to activity in the area from at least the post-medieval period onward.
