Abstract: |
A trench was excavated to investigated a large depression to the eastern side of the barrow mound considered to have been caused by 19th century antiquarian investigation of the barrow. The work was undertakn in advance of remedial works to the barrow caused by the partial collapse of one of the burial chambers. The evaluation revealed that the edge of the 19th century investigation corresponded exactly with the edge of the depression of the eastern side of the mound. It was thus possible to assume that all of the area within the depression is disturbed and available for remedial works acccess. It was however noted that areas outside the depression would need to be treated as undisturbed and containing potentially important archaeological remains. Little in the way of finds was recovered from the evaluation apart from a few fragments of bone and flint and one modern and two Romano-British potsherds. [AIP] |
