Abstract: |
An evaluation was undertaken on land proposed for a golf course development. Fieldwalking recovered a small number of flints and one piece of chert, a sherd of Roman greyware pottery, and random distributions of post-medieval material. Auger transects found that in all but one area the potential for palaeoenvironmental evidence was poor, whilst a palaeochannel investigated on the edge of Crow Wood identified only limited environmental potential. Investigation of cropmarks by geophysical survey and trial trenching encountered only the remains of two field boundaries and fragments of preserved wood representing the remains of small trees (possibly Alder). A rapid survey of earthworks in Crow Wood identified that the features possibly represented an enclosure of Iron Age date whilst a scatter of burnt and shattered pebbles possibly from a burnt mound or redeposited during recent cleaning of an adjacent woodland ditch was identified during a site visit.
