Abstract: |
Twenty evaluation trenches were excavated in the development area. The excavations revealed three extensive areas of disturbance. The disturbed areas were interpreted as quarry holes excavated during gravel extraction and subsequently backfilled with domestic rubbish and building debris. They were dated by their ceramic contents to the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. A single well-preserved fragment of Late Romano-British fine ware was also recovered, its residual status suggesting that it was of little archaeological significance. The fact that Roman remains may have been disturbed by the quarrying, however, prompted the recommendation of watching briefs during development work. [AIP] |
