Abstract:
The excavation revealed remains dating from the Neolithic through to the Middle Bronze Age.There is potential for Iron Age activity but this is yet to be confirmed. Post-Medieval agricultural ditches known locally as claying or marl ditches extended across the whole site.Neolithic occupation evidence was present in the form of flint scatters, small pits and finds within tree boles. A small number of Beaker pits were also present. Early Bronze Age remains were more extensive and included Collared Urn pits and a barrow with three associated cremation burials (four individuals) and an inhumation. Three further isolated cremations burials including one placed in a large urn were also discovered.
