Abstract: |
A watching brief was carried out during repair works to a sewer, at a site which lay within a Local Area of Archaeological Importance. Evidence of activity dating from the Palaeolithic to the Iron Age had been recorded in the surrounding area, and part of a cemetery of possible Roman date had been found during the laying of a drain at an uncertain location in the near vicinity. A medieval village had lain to the west of the proposal site. During the watching brief, two buried soil horizons were exposed and residual artefacts of prehistoric, medieval and 19th-20th century date were found. [AIP] |
