Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation of an area of some 14.5ha was undertaken in advance of large scale office development covering a total area of 21.53 ha. The evaluation comprised the excavation of ten trial trenches and three larger areas. The evaluation identified four principle archaeological phases of activity, comprising Early Neolithic, Bronze Age, Romano-British and medieval/post-medieval features. The earliest evidence comprised Early Neolithic activity represented by a large oval pit. The pit contained a large assemblage of Grimston ware dating to c.4200-3800 cal BC together with worked flint. Bronze Age remains were represented by two barrow ring ditches, some associated cremation pits and a buried soil horizon. Pottery evidence recovered some 50m to the north of these deposits included several fragments of an Enlarged Food Vessel Urn indicating that this activity may have been quite extensive. The third phase comprised parts of a rectilinear field system, a series of gullies and the remains of an oven/kiln. The position of this latter feature appeared to be respected by an element of the field system. The associated pottery suggested that the majority of the identified features in this phase dated to the 2nd or 3rd century AD. The final phase of activity represented in the archaeology recorded related to former medieval/post-medieval field systems and consisted of the remains of ridge and furrow. The whole site was heavily truncated by modern ploughing with no survival of contemporary surfaces. [Au(abr)]
