Type and Period (1)

  • DITCH (Roman - 43 AD to 409 AD)

Description

Six linear and two curvilinear ditches excavated during evaluation are thought to represent Roman boundary ditches. The low number of artefacts within them suggests they do not enclose areas of settlement and are best interpreted as arable or pastoral field boundaries (B1).
