| Abstract: |
Twenty-six trenches were excavated to evaluate land proposed for a quarry extension. The 20 trenches located in the larger fields within the proposal area revealed a series of recently-dug gullies and a few small, often unconvincing and undated pits. The only significant features were a small gully containing several sherds of pottery from a Roman vessel, and a possible trackway. The smaller field, already known to contain a scatter of Neolithic worked flints was rewalked. In spite of poor ground visibility, this demonstrated that the artefacts extended nearly the full lengh of the field, whilst a small, hand-excavated test-pit over the scatter produced an additional 110 worked flints. Analysis of the flint indicated a probable Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age date for the assemblage. [Au] |
