Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	Two areas of c. 536 sq m and 2000 sq m were stripped of overburden to reveal small numbers of postholes, pits and gullies. Two phases of occupation seem to be represented, with a Middle/Late Bronze Age phase followed by an Early Iron Age one. The chronology of the latter was supported by two radiocarbon dates of 771-516 and 594-406 cal BC. A small collection of animal bone was recovered but charred plant remains recovered by sieving consisted only of charcoal. A small collection of Late Saxon or medieval pottery sherds came from a single posthole and several furrows, and two sherds of Late Iron Age pottery were recovered as stray finds.
