Cocks Farm, Abinger

Excavation by S Dyer, for SyAS, continued on the site of a villa first excavated in 1877, with the aim of establishing the size of the complex and the location of the 19th century excavation. The work established the plan of a western range of what is presumed to be a corridor villa, but not the full extent of the complex. The results suggest different phases of construction, with the western range possibly being the earliest and the northern range the latest. Finds recovered range from mid/late 1st century to late 4th century AD.
