N2  - Geophysical survey and small-scale trial excavations were carried out on a small parchmark enclosure at Glanfred, near Llandre, Ceredigion in 2013. Geophysical survey revealed sections of the enclosure ditch that had not been previously visible from aerial photography, a number of possible entrances and two concentrations of internal anomalies. Excavation targeted a section of the inner of two ditches on the eastern side of the enclosure and an anomaly within the enclosure. An in situ iron slag deposit was discovered with an associated context dated between the late seventh and ninth century AD, whilst charred oats discovered in one of the lower deposits within the ditch was dated between the mid-fifth to sixth centuries AD. The results provide a rare insight into early medieval use of enclosures during the post-Roman and early medieval period, not only in northwest Ceredigion but more generally in Wales.
