Abstract:
This survey was successful in recording anomalies of a higher archaeological potential than those recorded in the two previous geophysical investigations. The preceding survey phases revealed an overall picture of dispersed rubbish pits or tree throws and hollows in a landscape dominated by later Iron Age, Roman, post-medieval and modern agricultural activity with only curvilinear trends providing weak evidence in support of a potential archaeological settlement. Stronger evidence of industrial activity however was recorded in the western field with two potential kiln sites. The current phase revealed perpendicular and parallel positive and negative linear trends, that form five distinct enclosures connected on their northern boundary with an east to west running trackway. A plethora of discrete anomalies in and around these enclosures indicates the presence of rubbish pits, burnt pits and potential hearths. This activity appears to continue into the western field, but has been damaged by modern quarrying on its eastern extent. Further investigation by trial trenching would help test the interpretations given in this report while evaluating the form, function and state of preservation of anomalies likely to be of archaeological origin.
