Description
Field walking in 1970 and a search of the available air photographic cover were largely negative, but could not be regarded as definitive. Hence, trial trenching using a JCB mechanical excavator was undertaken in September 1971.4 Although one complete field and parts of three others lay within the area with planning consent, excavation had to be limited to the northern and southern ends of the site on account of standing crops.
