Abstract:
The watching brief produced plentiful evidence of Roman activity in the area. Although scatters of Roman pottery appeared all over the site, there was a definite concentration of features and finds along the south side of the proposed new barn. Seven test pits were dug along this line. These produced four features, three of them datable to the Roman period. Elsewhere on this line concentrations of Roman pottery and tile were found. Forms seemed to be mainly bowls/dishes and jars, with a small percentage ornamented with inscribed markings. The date range for the features recovered seemed to suggest a relatively close date range of between AD150-250. Only one other feature was found during groundworks on the house and garage. This was a largish pit containing moderately large quantities of pottery. Again local grey sandy wares predominated, although four sherds of Samian ware, including a platter sherd, were also found here. The date for this pottery roughly coincided with that for features found elsewhere, with a slightly wider range of AD150-270. These date ranges possibly suggested a more precise period of activity in the areas explored on this occasion than elsewhere on the site. Acid sands seemed to have destroyed most other artefacts.
