Description
{1} Twelve archaeological features were identified and recorded. These comprised one animal burial, four pits, two of which contained significant quantities of animal bone, two postholes and five intercutting ditches. It is considered highly likely that these ditches had originally functioned as boundary markers. Excavation demonstrated that this activity could be split into several distinct phases. It is thought that these boundaries relate to divisions between the backplots of properties lining the High Street, which lies a short distance to the east. Site code: SMP03
