Full Description

2019: Evaluation identified medieval occupation activity, including possible structural evidence, along the road frontage and a series of undated ditches likely to represent former field boundaries. The broken blade end of a Bronze Age axe head was recovered from the topsoil (S1).
2020: Excavation identified ditched land divisions or property boundaries, a potential occupation layer and a parallel line of six in-situ oak posts. All of the evidence suggests domestic activity in a planned arrangement of boundaries perpendicular to the road named The Green, suggesting some degree of organised land arrangement and may relate to activity at a toft (S2).
