Full Description
{1} A layer of light grey silty clay, not fully exposed or characterised due to the confines of the test pit area and consequently difficult to interpret. The deposit probably indicates a floor surface or former ground surface. A small quantity of medieval pottery was recovered from the deposit, but it overlay a second deposit which contained small quantities of Late Iron Age / Early Romano-British, post-medieval and modern pottery, indicating that the pottery in the upper deposit was not in situ. Consequently, the possible floor surface must have been constructed relatively recently incorporating earlier material.
