Description

WP/14/00733/SCR {1} Detailed gradiometer survey of the Site identified anomalies of clear archaeological interest as well as other areas of archaeological potential. The majority of the certain and possible archaeological features were located in the southwestern part of the survey area and appear to show an area of enclosed settlement . These anomalies represent primarily ditch-like features which were interpreted as evidence for former enclosures or land divisions. The different alignments of the features are thought to indicate several phases of occupation. Associated with these ditch-like features are a number of pit-like anomalies which may provide indirect evidence for the presence of structures. No report lodged with HER
