Archaeologists have unearthed significant early medieval artifacts, providing essential insights into Anglo-Saxon life in Holderness, particularly their settlements and farming practices from the 5th to 11th centuries.
The most surprising and rewarding discovery on this project was the Anglo-Saxon long hall and associated field systems near Beeford, representing extensive evidence from the period in the Holderness region.
Experts utilized radiocarbon dating to better understand the chronology of sites, indicating that Anglo-Saxon presence in Holderness likely spanned multiple phases across several centuries.
In addition to Anglo-Saxon remains, the excavation also uncovered well-preserved Iron Age and Roman structures, along with artifacts like a long-handled bone comb and diverse pottery.
