Abstract: |
The fieldwork confirmed the findings of the evaluation revealing no cut features pre-dating post-medieval times and recovering just a few stray pottery finds of Post-medieval pottery. The finding of two flint flakes on the stripped surface points to a low level of use in Mesolithic or Neolithic times, with the pieces likely to represent casual loss or discard within the wider landscape setting. A number of linear features were recorded which were of post-medieval date from the pottery and other items they contained. A single sherd of pottery may be of late medieval date, but was recovered from a post-medieval ditch. Some of the boundaries are depicted on the Ordnance Survey maps of 1875 and 1900 and from the few stratigraphic relationships present, a reorganization took place in the early 20th century. |
