Full Description

Twelve trenches were excavated, with archaeology recorded in seven of the trenches. The archaeological features identified were predominantly ditches, gullies and a single small pit. These remains mainly relate to land demarcation and other agricultural activities associated with a rural landscape setting and can be dated to the medieval period and later. The small and abraded ceramic assemblage may have been derived from manuring and suggests that the area was somewhat peripheral to settlement focus, the closest of which could have been Cherry Tree Farm immediately to the west which may have medieval origins (S1).
