Full Description

June 2001. Watching brief A11 improvement scheme Area D.
The remains of a palisade bank and ditch and numerous post holes of unknown date were revealed along with some flint flakes and burnt flint. The lack of pottery from this site could suggest that it is prehistoric in date but without clear dating evidence this cannot be better defined.
See report (S2).
