NT 911091. Kidlandlee Dean 1, unenclosed settlement. (2)
Excavation in 2005 concentrated on one of the houses, revelaing stone platform material and a low stone bank forming the base of a house wall. The trench was covered by evidence of decayed turf walling. Finds included later prehistoric pottery, broken glass bead, whetstone and broken polisher. A Late Iron Age date is suggested for this post-abandonment assemblage. (3)
