Summary
Two linear features recorded by Context One in 2015 during evaluation of a site proposed for development. The features, interpreted as probable ditches, ran east-west on the break of slope, and were partly covered by a layer of material that appeared to have come from up slope, and contained pottery, flint and animal bone. The pottery spanned the Roman period.
