Abstract:
A watching brief was carried out during topsoil stripping for the second and third phase of a quarry extension scheme at the former site of an airfield. Aerial photographs had indicated a possible Iron Age enclosure within the Phase 1 area, and a possible Roman site close to the New Park Farm buildings and within the present extraction area had been reported in 1929. This site had since been disturbed by construction of the airbase. Fieldwalking of the proposal area had resulted in the recovery of Neolithic/Bronze Age flint artefacts. During the watching brief, several drainage features relating to the airfield were excavated, and a series of ditches which pre-dated the airfield but which were not considered to have been archaeologically significant were found. Several animal burials in pits lined with lime were located. A single burial, that of a pig, lay within an unlined pit. The well-preserved nature of the bone in this free-draining environment suggested that the burial had been recent. [AIP]
