Full Description

Evaluation undertaken by ASE in 2006, at Eureka Park prior to construction works.

Two Late Iron Age / Early Roman cremation urns were found, one with two ancilliary vessels - a dish and a bowl. (One was lifted; the other left in situ). Ditches and a shallow pit near the cremations may be related. (1)


Subsequent excavation revealed more of the ditches and a few more pits. (2)
