Abstract/Summary

'The evaluation has revealed the presence of archaeological finds and deposits in several locations across the site. It has broadly confirmed the results of the prior geophysical survey but has also revealed additional deposits elsewhere. The Mesolithic period is represented by a few stray finds of struck flint, while the Late Neolithic/Earlier Bronze Age period is represented both by cut features and scatters of struck flint mostly from the topsoil. The enclosures identified by the geophysical survey seem to represent two phase of use, one in the earlier Bronze Age and the second in the Late Iron Age-Early Roman period.'
