Full Description

Evaluation identified Middle Iron Age activity on the higher ground in the W part of the site. The remains consist of ditches and pits together containing a moderate-sized assemblage of predominantly Middle Iron Age pottery. Other features revealed in the trenches consisted of a row of post-holes, possibly of Roman date, and field boundary ditches, most of which are depicted on late 19th- and 20th-century maps. Modern features alongside the route of the former light railway were also investigated (S1).
