Abstract/Summary
Part of Iron Age, Saxon and medieval settlements, previously identified by trial trenching, were investigated in an open-area 0.2ha in size. Iron Age remains consisted of concentric ring ditches as well as surrounding pits. Roman activity was represented by a rectangular enclosure and ditch running east-west. A few Late Saxon features and associated finds were found with a possible structure from this period. There was heavy truncation of all features due to medieval and later activity on the site. In the early medieval period there were a few features mostly consisting of pits and ditches. Later the site had three buildings: a dovecote, malt house and a barn arranged around a courtyard with the malt house fronting onto Lime Street.
