Description

The 2011 excavation and watching brief recorded prehistoric features and finds, primarily concentrated in the Bronze Age. Prehistoric activity is indicated by a series of pits on the eastern edge of the site and the recovery of a significant quantity of residual prehistoric pottery fragments and worked flints from later contexts. The presence of flint blades in the assemblage also represents passing activity in the Neolithic to early Bronze Age. <1>
