Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was maintained during topsoil stripping ahead of the extension of Marfield Quarry. No archaeological features were observed. The artefact assemblage recovered consisted of pottery sherds dating from the Roman period through to modern day, with the majority of the material from the modern period. The distribution of finds suggested that deposition on the site was due to manuring. It was noteworthy that a watching brief of the adjacent area to the east only recovered material from the post-medieval to modern periods, and that the 1995 watching brief recovered both Roman and medieval material, allbeit in very small quantities.
