| Abstract: |
The assessment identified that the main impact of the modified road line, Modified Route 5, was its potential effect on the archaeology of medieval Stratton St. Michael. The settlement had shrunk to a hamlet around the medieval church, formerly there were two churches and associated occupation, as well as dwellings strung out along the north-south lane and around Rhees Green to the south. To the south, the road route skirted the western margin of Rhees Green, where there was evidence for medieval occupation, and a dense scatter of burnt flint, possibly prehistoric. Other prehistoric and Roman evidence threatened included a crop mark of a ring ditch. The assessment identified that surface fieldwork would be required, and archaeological intervention possible at several places along the route. [Au(adp)] |
