Abstract: |
A field evaluation was undertaken in response to an application to convert an area of land into a new burial ground. The first part of this included the observation of five test pits dug to test the geology. Following this, the excavation of seven trial trenches was observed fully. This revealed an area of the demolished post-medieval stable blocks, two undated pits, a probable Iron Age post hole, a medieval ditch and a large area of Iron Age and Roman activity. This evaluation also suggested medieval and post-medieval gravel quarrying on the site. [AIP] |
