Full Description
Evaluation followed non-intrusive investigations comprising desk-based assessment and geophysical survey. Excavations revealed an E–W aligned boundary ditch corresponding with a geophysical anomaly and likely representing a field boundary depicted on historic mapping from at least the time of the 1839 tithe map. An undated NE–SW aligned gully was also recorded. A small finds assemblage was recovered principally through metal-detecting, including post-medieval buttons, pistol shot and buckle fragments, two medieval coins and five Roman coins (S1).
