Abstract:
The evaluation confirmed the geophysical anomalies to be associated with the underlying limestone geology of the site and no archaeological remains were identified in these areas. Examination of the putative line of the Roman road uncovered ditches, a probable limestone wall footing and a gravel surface. The ditches and wall footing were in proximity to each other and appear to be a sequence of land boundaries. These are undated but previous investigations and cartographic evidence from the early 17th century suggest they represent a manorial boundary. It is likely that this had its origins in the medieval period but its broad alignment was maintained through the post-medieval period to the present standing field wall. The gravel surface was immediately below the extant drystone field boundary wall and the topsoil and would appear to be relatively recent. However, no dating evidence was recovered.
