Abstract:
A watching brief was carried out and recovered important evidence of Bronze Age activity in the form of a pit dated to 1730-1500 BC. The pit included residual material from an earlier phase of activity around 2000 BC. Evidence of Roman and medieval or post-medieval agriculture was also found in the form of artefacts deposited with farmyard manure. A medieval pond, evidence of the expansion of Northfield after c1800 and the remains of a building in an enclosure laid out behind the street frontage, were recorded. A well was found near the site of a house on the west side of Bell Hill, and other foundations of 19th and 20th century were also recorded. [Au(adp)]
