Abstract: |
An archaeological assessment was undertaken in advance of proposed sand and gravel extraction. The documentary study identified a series of cropmark sites revealed from air-photographs, principally in the eastern part of the study area. In addition, a small subcircular crop mark was identified during the field survey that was adjacent to a low natural sand hill, and was also in the eastern part of the study area. Elsewhere the identified resource was of a lesser archaeological significance. It was recommended that the crop mark sites be subject to geophysical survey, to identify their form, and extent, and then, subject to the results of the geophysical survey, the key sites should be explored by evaluatory trial trenching.
