Interim Summary Reports
The counter-scarp side of the ditch. We are excavating to the original ground level of this, which is approximately one third of the way down the slope seen in this picture.
Excavation in the ditch has recovered
a couple of human bones and Roman pottery, further suggesting the use
of the site as a burial ground during the Roman period.
If you would like
to help on the dig please speak to one of the team, or contact Denise
Price, at Oxford Archaeology on 01865 263800. Application forms may also
