Hazlerigg, round house and ditches
-
Description
On an aerial photograph is what appears to be a fragmentary rectilinear enclosure, probably of Iron Age date. In 2013 part of the site was archaeologically excavated. The earliest remains were a linear ditch cut into the natural clay. The ditch was 1.2m wide and 0.3m deep. Oak charcoal from the ditch fill produced a C14 date of 790-539 cal BC (early Iron Age). A curvilinear gully was up to 0.5m wide and up to 0.15m deep. The gully was the remains of a roundhouse approx 8m in dimater. The entrance was probably on the SE side. Alder charcoal from the gully filled produced a C14 date of 753-410 cal BC..... -
