Full Description
A number of pits, ditches and a post hole, many containing pottery, possibly indicating a small late iron age/early Romano-British farming settlement. Several of the ditches seem to have been deliberately back filled and may suggest that the landscape was reshaped at some point. The site may have been linked to the nearby Romano-British cremation/inhumation cemetery to the east (TQ 57 SE 6). (1)
