Abstract: |
The excavation revealed deposits of early medieval date along with Post-medieval and modern features. The fieldwork has recorded a component of Thame, perhaps including part of a croft defined by a substantial ditch, that is likely to have been in existence before the medieval planned town but which may have gone out of use shortly after the latter was created. Although pottery that could be of late Saxon date was recovered, no features were definitively dated to that period. Some reuse of the site took place at various times in later medieval and later times. A single Mesolithic struck flint and a few sherds of Roman pottery indicate a low level of activity of these periods in the area. |
