Original HER entry merged with NRHE data import.
Note: Source <4> is here derived from the NRHE data transfer, but it is unclear exactly what the source is referring to. The comments 'D G Buckley 1975' have been transferred and attached to SEX75710 as the content of this record may have been personal comments, but it is not possible to confirm this.
See EHER 49137 for an Early/Middle Iron Age settlement which has been interpreted as a possible precursor to the Roman activity at this location.
