Full Description
September 2010. Trial Trenching.
Evaluation of proposed development site.
One trench revealed a large feature, possibly a pond, that contained predominantly Middle Saxon (8th - 9th century) pottery. A single piece of ceramic building material recovered from the pond is possibly of Roman date. A small quantity of baked clay were also recovered from the pond and may have formed part of a daub lining, which might have been fixed to a wattle frame in the Roman or medieval period.
