Abstract:
The evaluation identified a colluvial deposit towards the base of the slope at the far western end of the site. Later prehistoric pottery and struck flint were recovered from this deposit and a significant quantity of worked flint was recovered from the ploughsoil in trenches located in this area. This material probably derives from the Late Bronze Age to Early Iron Age settlement activity that has previously been investigated to the south of the site. Two small pits were also identified in the northern and western parts of the site, from which a small assemblage of Iron Age pottery, animal bone and fired clay was recovered. In the northeastern part of the site were two undated ditches. Their alignments did not correspond with medieval or later boundaries identified within the site, suggesting that they may form part of an earlier Roman or prehistoric field system, although this could not be substantiated by finds assemblaages. At the eastern end of the site were two parallel ditches, spaced c. 10m apart and aligned north-east to south-west, possibly forming a droveway or track. Sherds of pottery dating from the 11th to the early 13th century was recovered from one of the ditches and its recut, along with fragments of fired clay and animal bone. A post-medieval field boundary ditch on a north to south alignment was encountered near the centre of the site. This feature, which is shown on the 1884-1886 Ordnance Survey map of the site, contained sherds of late 19th-century pottery and a ceramic land drain had been placed at its base.
