What is recorded here

In garden of modern house, located close to a stream. A concentration of burnt stones and charcoal fragments were noted when a pit was dug for tree-planting in the garden of a newly-constructed house. The landowner notified an archaeologist who examined the site and confirmed the archaeological significance of the remains. No above ground evidence of a mound was visible and the full extent of the burnt material could not be determined. The pit was backfilled and the location is now under lawn.
