Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken on the groundworks pertaining to the construction of eight new residential dwellings. The archaeological monitoring of the groundworks comprising the excavation of the foundations for the new residential dwellings identified a simple deposit sequence which consisted of a layer of hardcore associated with former concrete hardstanding on the site, a truncated remnant of a topsoil horizon and an underlying natural horizon of boulder clays. This deposit sequence was observed and recorded throughout the whole monitored area and was recorded within a total of five. representative sections. No archaeological activity was identified on this site and there were no finds. NO archaeological activity which could be associated with the Battle of Gainsborough of 1643 was identified. In the light of these findings and following consultations between the author and Ms Karen Waite of the Lincolnshire County Council Historic Environment Team, it was agreed that no further archaeological monitoring of the groundworks would be necessary. |
