Abstract/Summary

Between 1998 and 2003, AOC Archaeology conducted a programme of archaeological evaluation, excavation, building recording and a watching brief, during the development of the parkland at Ingress Abbey into a new housing estate. The first part of the document details the archaeological results following evaluation and excavation of a flat area in the south of the parkland. The second part gives the results of other recording actions around the parkland necessitated by the development. The excavated area revealed four phases of archaeological activity: palaeolithic, neolithic, Roman and post-medieval.
