Abstract: |
An evaluation of land proposed for the extension of an existing quarry was undertaken. Two trenches were opened, one in the area of an enclosure, and the second over field ditches identified from air photographs. The ditches were located, excavated and found to contain Romano-British pottery. The enclosure ditches had been truncated through ploughing but were visible. The field ditches were better preserved and one showed an unusual construction. Finds were well preserved and significant quantities were recovered. The work suggested that the site was of potential to allow a greater understanding of the brickwork pattern field systems of north Nottinghamshire. [Au] |
