Full Description

An area of 0.6 hectares was evaluated by trial trenching to provide a 5% sample of the site. At the south-western end of the site a series of medieval ditches were revealed, mostly running on a north-east to south-west alignment. Pottery recovered from these features was mainly of late 12th to 14th century AD date. Prehistoric finds in the form of a sherd of pottery of Late Bronze to Early/Middle Iron Age date and heat-altered flint were recovered as residual finds in the medieval features (S1).
