In 1997 construction of a new soakaway at Bantham Ham revealed two sides of a settlement enclosure with a stone revetted rampart from which Romano-British material of 2C-4C was recovered. Palaeoenvironmental sampling was also undertaken. The enclosure provided a possible context for some of the Roman material retrieved from the area previously.
