Abstract: |
Excavation was undertaken in advance of residential development. The earliest remains encountered during this phase of works were late Iron Age or early Romano-British enclosure ditches. This was followed by at least two stages of coaxial field division, probably of broadly the same period. A nucleated late Romano-British cemetery, of probable 3rd to 4th century date, was uncovered in the northeastern quarter of the development area. This consisted of at least fifty three individual graves, aligned east-west, with greater than that number of individual human skeletons being recovered. |
