Abstract: |
Evaluation was undertaken in an area close to previous discoveries of Iron Age settlement, and containing cropmarks and geophysical signals suggesting Iron Age-Roman enclosures. In the area of the cropmarks and geophysical signals a ditch containing a little Iron Age pottery was revealed. Nearby, a possible ring ditch was identified and may be of the same period but was undated Other ditches close by are perhaps also associated but were undated. The lack of artefacts perhaps indicates that the remains do not represent settlement but possibly agricultural enclosures/fields. The western part of the site revealed a former buried land surface, covered by layers of alluvium, though it is possible this deposition continued quite late, perhaps into the post-medieval period. The area containing the possible Iron Age remains had been stripped to the surface of the natural in the mid-20th century for the operations of a sewage farm. |
