Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at the proposed site of a major extension to an activity centre. A cropmark which ran across the site had been noted on aerial photographs; this was thought to represent the course of a possible Roman road. During the evaluation, this feature was found to have resulted from an accumulation of ploughsoil, forming a positive lynchet or headland. A modern feature, possibly resulting from tree-clearance, and a probable modern pit were also revealed. The remains of a steel container of fairly recent date were recovered from the latter. A sherd of possible Roman pottery was found. [AIP] |
