Full Description
PRN 54535
A desktop assessment and geophysical survey carried out on this site identified cropmarks and anomalies requiring further investigation. Later trial trenching on site identified a north-east/south-west aligned ditch, containing Mid- to Late Iron Age pottery. Further Iron Age potsherds were also recorded in a secondary context, in the fill of a pit containing 14th century pottery. It was impossible to speculate on the nature of the site due to the limited nature of the evidence.{1}{2}{3}
