. SOmefurther other sites in the vicinity no Anglo-Saxon period occuPAtion was recognised. A little residual early Romano-British pOttery (PRN 12, 381) and a little medieval pottery from the bottdm of an undisturbed pit (PRN 14 883) was recovered. The secrions'showed that there had been,grOss post-medieval disturbence of the top metreof soil. One section was obscured bY-a modern sewer pipe trench - Labour. was provided by the Abingdon Area Archaeolcigical and' Historical Society.

Remnants of a dry-stone-wall:by which six 4th century coins were found suggesting aA.nst piree caMe from a sewer-trench 100 d-south-west of the Previous finds (CBA.9 Newsletter No. 9, 123-5). There was no further domestic debris or other ground disturbance recognisedin ground works further joUth-wesi which indicates that the south-western limit of .the Romano-British settlement bas been reached.' - 168-
The recording of the settlement features as they are exposed during the building operations continues to be undertaken chiefly by Peter Biebrach assisted by local volunteers to whom the OAU Would again like to extend its thanks. 23. TICESTER; Lower Home Close Ground-work for a small housing estate in the centre of Biaester, occupying a field that extends between 90 - 230 m north of the parish church has exposed extensive médieval,occupation. The site.was first reported to the Unit by Humphrey Woods (PRN 11, 876; Centred SP.58312242). The mechanical removal of 0.15 -.0.3 m of top eoil.exposed limestone rubble spreads from yard and floor surfaces and debris from drystone. Or soil bonded building foundations (Pig.116:.). This rubble covered almost all of the site.except for a elightly depressed.area along the eastern edge of the site which is shown 'shaded on the plan' (Fig. 11160; This area which beaomes boggy in wet weather was.sectioned by a deep trench which exposed the edge of a-channel for the River Bure. A close watch of the house foundations, service trenches and the roadway cutting.revealedjip to 0.3 mnf stratified archaeological. deposits remaining'beneath the topsoil strip with post.holee, pits. and property boundary ditches occasionally seen in section. All of the dateable-features recorded on this site were medieval. The amount of post7medieval pottery recovered was almost as small as the quantity of residual.Romano-Britishpattery. This lack of material indicated that in both periods although there must have been occupation close by there need not'have been any occupation on thé site itsel. Several sherds of early Anglo-Saxon ''grass-tempered" fabrics and several coarse,. indistinguishable. Angla-Saxon or Iron Agesherds were also recavered froM the site. Away from the deep silt§ of theald river channel the variable eubsoil comprised light noloured clays, sometime§ sandy, in betireen. 'non-uniforM beds and lenses of liMestane of varying.quality. Ak_bed of better quality limestone occurred'at.the 'northern end of the site and this had been heavily quarried although possibly by'the:middle ..and certainly by the later medieval period the quarries-had all been back-filled and built aver.. Bicester developed from'two separate manors, King's End and Market End, which always shared the parish ahurch of St. Edburga. However, although a.small amount'of village settlement was suspected to have grown up around the church before the development of the market place and expansion of the town along Sheep Street, it is clear from this site that there was a fairly large agricultural village elementsurviving bythe-church on the western side-of the River Bure until the beginning of the post-medieval period. Just how large this element was remains unclear. The future development of land adjoining this site may proVide opportunities to-explore the extent and date range of this occupation. - 169-
