| Abstract: |
Headland Archaeology undertook a series of archaeological Mitigation investigations at Wadlow Windfarm, West Wratting. This was in advance of construction of thirteen turbines and associated groundworks. Excavations revealed evidence of a landscape which had been utilised from the Neolithic period through to the Anglo-Saxon period. Neolithic activity was represented by a group of flint quarry pits which contained primary flint reduction waste. Late Bronze Age-Early Iron Age field systems and a small part of an Iron Age settlement. A single Sunken Featured Building, typical of the Anglo-Saxon period, was identified in the south-western part of the site and contained ceramic loom weights; artefacts that support the interpretation of these structures as weaving sheds. |
