Abstract: |
Forty-one trenches were excavated across the site, some targeting geophysical anomalies, of which twenty-eight were identified to contain archaeological features. These remains, comprising linear ditches, gullies and pits were spread across most of the site, with a particular concentration in the south-west and east. The majority of dated remains were of medieval or possible medieval date and confined to the southern half of the site. Ditches constituting the remains of a field system and a rectangular enclosure demonstrate agricultural land use activity in the 12th/13th century. Post-medieval remains comprised ditches corresponding with field boundaries recorded on historic mapping. |
