Abstract:
Herefordshire Archaeology and The University of Manchester undertook exploratory excavations at two sites in Dorstone, Cross Lodge and Windy Ridge. The project forms part of an ongoing joint partnership investigating prehistoric activity within the southwest of Herefordshire. The investigations aim to improve the knowledge of early migrations, in particular ritual and settlement sites associated with Neolithic activity. The test excavation at Cross Lodge assessed the archaeological potential of a broad low knoll oriented north-west to south-east and located 120m to the east of the putative but unproven (Scheduled) long barrow at Cross Lodge (SMR 1529). Two trenches were investigated, neither of which produced any finds or intercepted any features indicative of cultural activity. At Windy Ridge, a ditch had been located by aerial photography, overlooking and traversing a prominent hill spur. Two trenches each ranging in size from 10m x 3m to 16m x 2m were excavated and archaeological features and artefacts were identified that indicate the multi-period use of the site. This occupation may well have included the use of the site as a hill-top enclosure in the fourth millennium BC.
