CPAT Project
Defended Enclosures follow-up
Work being undertaken on this project during the course of the financial year includes the geophysical survey of a number of selected enclosure sites in Montgomeryshire which it is anticipated will extend our knowledge and understanding of an important cluster of Iron Age and Roman farmsteads in mid Wales. It is hoped that this work will involve volunteers and include various education and outreach initiatives. The programme also includes editorial work on the publication texts for a publication on defended enclosures throughout Wales being prepared by Cadw

CPAT Project
Cwm Mawr Axe Factory
This second season work at the Cwm Mawr axe factory near Hyssington in Montgomeryshire will involve larger-scale excavation of one of the most promising small quarry sites identified in the area of the rock outcrop used for the production of battle-axes and axe-hammers in the Bronze Age. The primary objectives will be to look for dating evidence and evidence of quarrying technology. The project will be carried out in partnership with the National Museum Wales who will also make a financial contribution to the project and it is also hoped will include various educational and outreach initiatives focused on the project.

CPAT Project
Hindwell Causewayed Enclosure
Recent cropmark evidence has revealed a potential causewayed enclosure which adds significantly to the already important complex of Neolithic field monuments within the Walton Basin which include cursus monuments and palisaded enclosures in addition to habitation sites, funerary monuments and lithic scatters. The objective of the project is to place this new discovery within a local and national framework, to identify the vulnerability and state of preservation and to make recommendations for future management. Project work will include geophysical survey to define the remaining sections, followed by small-scale trial excavation to determine the date, condition and vulnerability of the site, which is subject to regular ploughing. A number of flint artefacts have already been recorded in this area and a programme of field-walking is proposed to recover further artefacts and map their general distribution.
