Abstract: |
Eleven trial trenches were investigated within the 8.7ha site, selectively targeting geophysical results on a known cropmark enclosure complex. Seven trenches contained linear ditches, pits and postholes, almost exclusively located in the north and closely correlating with the cropmark and geophysical survey plots. These remains possibly constitute an Early/Middle Roman farmstead, occupying the well-draining lower slope of the river valley. Notably, this was located a short distance south of the Roman fort and later town at Great Chesterford. |
