Abstract:
A 3.13ha area excavation was undertaken in advance of residential development The earliest remains comprise Mesolithic to Neolithic (c.10000-2500 BC) features containing worked flint, attesting to hunter-gatherer presence in the landscape. Remains of a Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age barrow were found to include a central Beaker grave containing four ceramic vessels. This funerary monument survived into the Middle Bronze Age when it was a focus for further ritual activity. Probable settlement remains, comprising post-built buildings and pits of Late Bronze Age-Early Iron Age (c.800-400 BC) were present at the southern end of the site. A rectilinear enclosure system was imposed on the landscape in the later Roman period (c.AD220-410). This contained several probable timber building remains and is clearly a peripheral part of a farmstead that lies to the north. Two dispersed Early Saxon sunken-featured buildings and a single pit, located away from the preceding Roman farmstead, imply continuing occupation of this landscape into the 5th-7th centuries AD. Boundary/drainage ditches and six large quarry pits denote agricultural activity and rural exploitation in the Late medieval / post-medieval period.
