Middle Bronze Age activity at the site was identified by a semi-circular enclosure, ditched boundaries & debris from a possible cooking site. A northwest to southeast aligned linear ditch running to a rounded terminal was recorded crossing the southern part of the site. Part of the ditch had been recut & it had been extended to the southeast. The ditch contained middle Bronze Age Trevisker-style pottery dated between 15-11th century BC. Aerial photographs show the feature continues westwards suggesting an agricultural boundary. The north & west sides of a curving ditched enclosure were identified to the north of the boundary ditch from which middle Bronze Age pottery was recovered. Internal features of the enclosure included a gully or slot, a series of postholes & a pit. A long linear arrangement of paired ditch segments was identified in the northern part of the site. The segments ran into terminals housing a sngle posthole. Other details: Fig 1.
