Abstract
An archaeological excavation was undertaken by a team from Cambridge Archaeological Unit on behalf of Hanson Aggregates PLC on a 5.06ha site at Baston No. 2 Quarry. This excavation at Glebe covered about three quaters of the field, the remainder will be excavated at a later date. The excavation revealed field systems of Middle Bronze Age date, in addition to pits, wells and postholes with complimentary domestic debris, were excavated and recorded. The remains of a ring ditch with an inhumation, a trackway and enclosed settlement provide an insight to the community of the Bronze Age people and place the site in context with the surrounding landscape.
