Full Description

{1} The five trenches excavated in Enclosure Complex 1 confirm the findings of the geophysical survey which suggested the existence of an Iron Age/Romano British settlement with at least four NE/SW alligned rectangular enclosures, possibly with an associated field system. A possible trackway defined by two parallel ditches was also identified at the southern edge of the site. This site is clearly of more than one phase as one of the rectangular enclosures and the trackway are superimposed.

{2} The ditches were c20m apart. The northern ditch formed the southern side of enclosure EN4.
