Description
NRHE data transfer:
Five sites excavated following fieldwalking and watching brief of topsoil stripping. These sites (30-35) included a late Bronze Age post hole structure and cremation (EHER 19520), a series of late Bronze Age (EHER 19518) and Roman (EHER 17549) field boundaries, and medieval features close to Newman's End (EHER 19519), suggesting that the latter settlement had contracted or shifted since that period.
