Full Description
{1} Pottery recovered as follows:
1 x 975-1150 Cotswold-type Oolitic ware
7 x 1100-1400 Shelly coarseware
24 x 1100-1400 Miscellaneous Sandy coarseware
3 x 1250-1600 Potterspury ware
14 x 1700-1899 Miscellaneous wares
The full ceramic sequence was found, located at the edge of the level hilltop. A dirty layer of undated, re-deposited clay was revealed lying above the natural. This might be interpreted as the last remnant of a ploughed-out bank, the clay deriving from the lower levels of an associated ditch.
