Abstract:
An archaeological excavation was conducted in advance of development at Marne Barracks. A Mesolithic knapping floor was identified containing over 1100 chert flakes, all debitage from tool manufacture. Overlying the knapping floor was a large Neolithic palisaded enclosure. This was only partly exposed with c.40% lying to the south of the excavated area. It consisted of two concentric sub-circular palisades that, based on projections from the exposed structure, would originally have enclosed a total area of c. 2.75ha. A sample from a posthole yielded a date of 2630BC-2470BC (cal.). This enclosure was seen as being of national importance and many respects unique. Two Roman ditches were also recorded containing pottery dated to the 1st or early 2nd century AD. Gullies, possibly part of a Roman field system were recorded as well as post-medieval pits, a road and field boundaries. Remains of a possible modern sentry box were also recorded. [Au(adp)]
