Description
{1} Trial trench excavation comprising 120 trenches of c37ha of mainly arable fields. The evaluation consisted of 14 trenches measuring 20m long, 7 trenches measuring 30m long, 83 trenches measuring 40m long and 16 trenches measuring 50m long, with each trench measuring 1.8m wide. Four trenches could not be excavated due to ecological restraints. The current evaluation further recorded the remains of a settlement which forms the periphery of the previously identified Late Iron Age and Roman settlement, which was investigated in December 2013.
