Abstract:
A potential palaochannel was identified in the south-west corner of the site during site investigation monitoring works. This investigation has succeeded in identifying archaeological features in 11 of the 17 excavated trenches. A small quantity of residual struck flint artefacts suggests some activity of Mesolithic to Early Neolithic date in the vicinity of the site, with one potential pit or tree throw of this date. Much of the recorded archaeological activity appears to be related to a late Roman metalworking site with two identified focusses of smelting activity, both located towards the centre of the investigated area, one of which may have been partially enclosed. Residues from environmental samples also suggest limited smithing within the site. A single in-filled post-medieval field boundary ditch was identified towards the south-east end of the site.
