Full Description
{1} Around the farmstead there was a rectlinear pattern of field boundary or drainage ditches. The sampled ditches yielded date ranges coincident with the possible farmstead site. Abandoned late 2nd or early 3rd centuries. Among the cropmarks were rectangles defined by ditches which may have represented the sites of further buildings. However where one of these features was sampled (group 38) it was found to have been formed by a number of ditches which coincidently formed a rectangle without evidence of an internal structure.
