Full Description
An evaluation carried out in 1997 prior to CTRL works identified only two features of Late Iron Age/Early Roman date, probably representing two phases of the same boundary, and dating to the 1st century AD. The generally poor level of preservation may indicate that any other features of the same date have been destroyed by later agricultural activity(1).
