Iron Age hut circles discovered near Lower Mill Farm, Stanwell (TQ 03577418)
Phil Jones and Rob Poulton
Salvage excavation and recording of features revealed during overburden removal within a gravel pit demonstrated that they belonged to a small settlement of prehistoric, probably Iron Age, date. Eaves-drip trenches belonging to two round houses and an ancillary structure were recorded. A scatter of medieval and post- medieval sherds within the permission imply arable use not previously known for that period.
