| Summary: | The prime interest of this rescue excavation on a Kennet valley development site on the outskirts of Reading is the Late Bronze Age settlement evidence: semi-circular segmented buildings, four and six post structures, two post supports; paired houses in lines, open space, activity and storage areas; flax retting pits flanking a trackway; and associated field systems. The discussion in this book ties these finds to other local discoveries. Earlier Neolithic evidence suggests some resource-specific rather than domestic activity took place on the site, whilst enclosures and linear boundaries have been found from the Romano-British period.
