Abstract:
An archaeological desk-based assessment was undertaken in advance of a proposal to link the Barnsdale Bar Landfill Site to the National Grid with a 11kv electricity cable. The proposed route of narrow cable crossed an area of former wetland at the edge of the Humberhead Levels. There was extensive crop mark evidence that the area was occupied and used by farming communities in the Iron Age and Roman periods and probably in the preceding Bronze Age. The proposed route was thought to directly affect known crop mark sites, as well as abandoned and active medieval and later thoroughfare and possible post-medieval features. Also the former wetland area contained alluvium and peat deposits which could have contained archaeological features and important environmental material. A further archaeological watching and recording brief was recommended. [Au(adp)]
