Land rear of Barnwood School, Worplesdon
Excavation by R Poulton of SCAU, for SCC, of an area proposed for residential development, previously evaluated in 1994 and 1997. The first phase of activity on the site was early to mid 2nd century when a number of human cremations were buried in shallow scoops. In the same period a large boundary ditch was excavated and it is possible that a post-built structure is also of this date. In the late 2nd - 3rd centuries, a large stone-built structure was constructed.
