Prehistoric, Romano-British, and Anglo-Saxon Activity at Whitelands Farm, Bicester
Prehistoric, Romano-British, and Anglo-Saxon Activity at Whitelands Farm, Bicester Jon Martin with contributions by Alistair Barclay, Philippa Bradley, Lorrain Higbee, Kayt Marter Brown, Mandy Jay, Jacqueline I. McKinley, Janet Montgomery, J. Peter Northover, Maura Pellegrini, Ruth Pelling, Chris J. Stevens, Sarah F. Wyles, and illustrations by S.E. James and Karen Nichols SUMMARY Excavations undertaken by Wessex Archaeology at Whitelands Farm south-west of Bicester revealed a multi-period site ranging from the early Bronze Age to the mid Anglo-Saxon period. A total of eighteen areas were investigated, but the density of features across the site was very varied. Area 1 contained a scatter of middle to late Iron-Age settlement features, a rock-cut ditch, and pit clusters. Most features recorded in Area 7 were late Iron Age and reveal evidence for settlement and agriculture, the exceptions being a Romano-British ditch and a Beaker burial. Areas 14, 15, and 16 contain the remains of two enclosure ditches, stone-lined tanks and culverts, quarry pits, ditches, corn driers/ ovens, pits, and post-hole structures, mostly dated to the late Iron Age or Romano-British period, and providing evidence for settlement, domestic activity, and quarrying. Stone-lined tanks and associated stone-lined channels in Area 16 contained evidence for grain processing. These areas also revealed some mid Anglo-Saxon features and re-use of one of the stone-lined tanks. PROJECT BACKGROUND programme of archaeological excavations on land south-west of Bicester, Oxfordshire (NGR A 457100 222000; Fig. 1) was carried out in 2008 by Wessex Archaeology before development of the site for housing. -

The North Oxfordshire Grim's Ditch
THE NORTH OXFORDSHIRE GRIM’S DITCH: AN ENIGMA WITHIN AN ENIGMA Tim Copeland THE ‘CINDERELLA’ OF LARGE SCALE LATE IRON AGE/EARLY ROMAN ENCLOSURES. AT THE TIME THAT THIS MONUMENT WAS CONSTRUCTED THERE WAS NO ‘OXFORDSHIRE’ AND ‘GRIM’ WAS OF ANGLO- SAXON ORIGIN. WE HAVE TO THINK HERE ON A REGIONAL, OR EVEN NATIONAL, SCALE. The late Iron Age major sites Crawford did a lot of fieldwork on foot and in the air (the ‘father’ of fieldwork as we know it) and discovered sections of the NOGD south of the River Evenlode. He published his findings in ‘Antiquity’ Issue 15 in 1930 under the title ‘Grimsdyke in Wychwood’. He suggested that the NOGD might have been constructed about 370 AD to stop invading Saxons attacking the villas. NOGD CHARACTERISTICS I • Area: 80sq km • Linear bank and ditch: 40km with gaps • Bank: 2m high(?) and 7m wide • Ditch:1.75m deep • Ditch: 6.8m wide • Possible palisade in front of the ditch • No traces of previous occupation within the enclosed area EXCAVATIONS AT BLENHEIM AND MODEL FARM DITCHLEY 1936 • It was decided that the structure was completed in the early AD 40s against the Roman threat. It was then deliberately filled in almost immediately when it was seen to be redundant. A cross-section of the NOGD at Ditchley in 1936. Note the presence of a ‘palisade trench’ beyond the ditch. This occurs at many points on the north circuit. THE NOGD AT LONG HANBOROUGH Having been covered by woodland for at least a 1000 years, this must be close to its full height and depth. -
