Full Description
PRN 20558
DURING A WATCHING BRIEF AT CLAY LAKE SEVERAL DITCHES WERE REVEALED. THEY WERE SEALED BY FLOOD SILTS OF POST-ROMAN DATE. AN ABSENCE OF ASSOCIATED ARTEFACTS WOULD SUGGEST THAT THESE DITCHES ARE NOT PART OF SETTLEMENT, BUT MORE PROBABLY REPRESENT EXTENSIONS OF THE FIELD SYSTEMS EVIDENT AS CROPMARKS IN THE VICINITY. {1}{2}
