Abstract: |
Natural geology of alluvial clays overlain by homogeneous topsoil, currently under pasture. - Equally spaced hollow depressions in Trenches 6 and 10 are suggestive of medieval ridge and furrow agricultural practises; however, modern (post-medieval) finds securely recovered from the fills of the hollows would contradict this and the hollows were interpreted as a result of in-filling of the natural hollows across the Site. - Other modern land use in the form of post-medieval land drains and a modern painted post indicated that the land was in need of drainage and may have been sub-divided by wooden fences. - No archaeological features of significance were observed. |
