| Title | An Iron Age and Romano-British 'ladder' settlement at Melton, East Yorkshire |
| Date | 1999 |
| Abstract | A series of ten trial excavation trenches were located in the South Lawn area at Melton, East Yorkhsire, on a 'ladder' settlement site previously recorded from aerial photographs. The evaluation was undetaken prior to proposed junction improvements on the A63. A complete late prehistoric rural landscape of enclosure systems and settlement sites was identified with important evidence of continuity in the transitional period between the late pre-Roman Iron Age and the Roman period. This occupation does not seem to have lasted much beyond the second century AD. |
