Description
Evaluation by trial trench, 2020
Thirty-three evaluation trenches were excavated across the 4.85ha site. Archaeological remains were identified in nineteen trenches and were spread across the site.
Remains of Late Bronze Age date were present in the centre and west of the site and consisted of a small pit, an extensive field boundary ditch and a semi-circular ring-gully.
Due to disturbance and the presence of a later ditch, it was not determined if the gully was part of a wider circular structure. <1>
