Abstract:
Archaeological field evaluations were undertaken at Cromwell Road and revealed a series of drainage ditches or dykes which lay beneath very low west-north-west to east-south-east aligned ridge and furrow. These land divisions known as darlands were associated with medieval arable cultivation within the reclaimed silt fenlands. Sediments within the ditches indicated a gradual infilling with organic and non-organic sediments with intemittent flooding deposting fine grained alluvial sediments. Following episodes of flooding, ditches were recut, indicating maintenance of the drainage and agricultural system. [Au]
