Abstract: |
A small archaeological excavation revealed that the site saw Roman occupation which included both early (1st-2nd century) and Late Roman (4th century) elements. It consisted of a NNW-SSE ditch surrounded by several refuse pits, an isolated post hole and a couple of short gullies, possibly extending towards the property to the south. The quantity of finds suggests significant settlement of the period in the vicinity. A large quarry pit was probably medieval or later and two small pits contained medieval pottery. |
