Abstract:		 Two adjacent excavation areas were investigated, targeting remains found by the preceding evaluation. An irregular and interrupted ditched boundary of Late Bronze Age to Early Iron Age date extended east/west across both excavation areas. A parallel ditch to its south, crossing Area A only, is considered contemporary, though appears to have passed out of use several centuries before the northern boundary. A scatter of contemporary pits and three unurned cremation burials were recorded, one of which has been radiocarbon dated to 1236-1051 cal BC. A socketed bronze axe head and associated two further fragments of copper alloy, found together in a modern agricultural drain, probably constitute at least part of a dispersed hoard of Late Bronze Age metalwork. Middle Iron Age land use was represented by a cluster of short curving ditches/gullies and pits/postholes found to the south of the earlier boundaries and an isolated pit elsewhere. Apparently intrusive finds of Late Iron Age/Roman pottery encountered in Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age boundary ditch and related pit features may include instances of deliberately deposited material inserted into the boundary remains.
