Full Description
Series of intercutting Medieval features representing the remains of roadside settlement. Features including post holes, ditches, and a probable occupation layer were identified between the road and a north-northwest to south-southeast aligned boundary ditch likely demarcating the rear of the tofts. A significant quantity of Medieval pottery and animal bone typical of domestic waste was recovered from these features. Saxo-Norman pottery was also discovered within some features that also contained late medieval Toynton and Toynton Type II wares. This indicates the nearby presence of a settlement in the 9th-10th centuries, though no features on this site were positively dated as Saxo-Norman. {1}{2}{3}
