Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation comprising a single trench was carried out on behalf of Noralle Traditional Country Homes Limited in advance of development in an area considered likely to contain medieval settlement associated with the village of Napton-on-the-Hill. Geological natural clay was exposed in the trench and a solitary undated pit or hollow which contained animal bone was recorded cutting the natural. The undated pit or hollow is difficult to interpret but as it was generally difficult to distinguish the fill from the older plough zone (102) it possibly related to post-medieval activity. A single sherd of St Neot's type medieval pottery was recovered from the older plough zone (102). This is a fairly typical find around medieval settlements and does not imply occupation of the site at that date. |
