Photo 2: possible Neolithic pit beneath the goalposts! Sometimes we can only infer the date of a feature. The pits uncovered in this evaluation were structurally and stratigraphically similar to some discovered 20m south of the site during earlier archaeological investigation. That site had material dating to the Neolithic/ Bronze Age within the feature.

Photo 3: reburial service at local church with due reverence for our ancestors. This site produced evidence for cremation and inhumation burials together with domestic occupation from C2nd to the C7thAD

Significant archaeology was identified in a portion of the site and it was determined that further excavation needed to take place in order to fully record the assets of interest.
