From 1993-2000 Oxford Archaeology examined a sequence of rural
landscapes at Hanson Aggregates' Sutton Courtenay Pit ahead of
gravel extraction. The earliest of these, a rectilinear system of
trackways and field enclosures, with associated waterholes for
animals, devleoped from about 1500 BC. Probably contemporary
cremation burials lay close by. No significant later prehistoric
evidence was found, but about the middle of the 1st century AD a
high-status double-ditched enclosure was established. This
settlement was associated with further rectilinear field systems,
enclosures and trackways and two cremation burials. This settlement
went out of use after c AD 120 and subsequent activity was entirely
agricultural in nature.
