Abstract
The abstract describing the content of the publication or report
Abstract:
Excavation covered 1.4ha, revealing four main episodes of activity upon a gravel ridge falling to Gault Clay. (1) a cluster of Middle Bronze Age pits (though a handful of worked flints represent a later Neolithic presence). (2) Two Early Iron Age pits. (3) 1st-3rd century settlement in three phases. Phases 1 and 2 relate to a primary and secondary phase of settlement c.1st-2nd century; Phase 3 sees a ditched trackway - the provenance of which must lay within the preceding phases - traverse the site from south to north, with further evidence of settlement spreading from the west. The ceramic evidence shows that by the mid-3rd century the majority of settlement activity had ceased. (4) Post-Medieval furrow cultivation which lay across much of the site, though with little impact to earlier deposits.
