Full Description
2013-2014: Evaluation and monitoring revealed a total of 26 pits in three locations on the site, many of which contained domestic Early Neolithic material. The pits and their assemblages suggest temporality of settlement, occupation and deposition. A small quantity of Early Neolithic pottery (possibly residual) was recovered from three ditches and a single posthole outside of the main three areas of activity. A large number of ditches were recorded during the course of the evaluation and despite remaining undated, are likely to be agricultural in nature (S1).
