During an excavation in advance of housing carried out in 2004/5, a number of features were found. Ditches, pits and a midden comprised a large sub-circular enclosure - the 'northern enclosure'. This was constructed towards the end of the 10th century BC and continued in use into the 9th century BC. Most of the enclosure lay outside the excavated area but its dimensions may have been c. 45m x 45m. consideration of the evidence suggested, though, that the enclosure may not have been related to settlement but rather to some ceremonial purpose associated with feasting and the disposal of the dead. One feature contained juvenile teeth and scientific analysis suggested that the person had come from Scandinavia. (location accurate to the nearest 1m based on available information)
