Phasing
Although the finds from this feature are predominantly Roman in date, layer
012AE00020
contained a Middle Saxon styca. The palisade is thus believed to be contemporary
with the post-in trench structure Master 012AE00061.
Stratigraphic Sequence Diagram
Discussion
When the excavation of area 12AE began, a slightly enigmatic feature was
located on its eastern edge. The north-south aligned feature had originally
been detected by the AML 
gradiometer survey carried out in 1991, and the high resolution
gradiometer survey prior to the excavation season in 1995 confirmed the
unusual nature of the feature, which contained a number of discrete magnetic
anomalies.
The feature was initially cut into the solid chalk, with a number (14)
of posts and 2 timber slots constructed, being packed with large angular
chalk fragments (layer 012AE00056). A layer
of sandy clay loam (012AE00020) subsequently
formed over the angular chalk, and it was in this layer that the styca
was found. Over half of the animal bone finds also came from layer 012AE00020.
The distribution of animal bone
is confined to the northern half of the feature. Interestingly, the finds
distribution follows exactly
the positive magnetic anomalies detected in the gradiometer survey, although
not all of these anomalies resolved themselves into individual features
upon excavation.
