Full Description
An area of Romano-British activity identified in 2017. To the north of the site lay a series of intercutting ditches. Towards the centre of the site there were traces of an 'area of occupation' in the form of 'small linear features' running at right angles, together with various pits and post-holes. Towards the west of the site a second series of pits and post-holes was recognised. Several linear features were also identified towards the south of the site. The 'small linear features' were believed to be beam slots. Unfortunately few of these features intercut, so it was difficult to arrive at a sequence of activity, but the pottery recovered mostly took the form of Derbyshire Ware dating from the mid 2nd century to the 4th century.
