Abstract: |
A watching brief conducted during groundworks for a replacement rising main between Golden Cross Pumping Station, Swineshead, and an extended treatment plant at Swinshead Sewage Treatment works produced a dense scatter of medieval pottery sherds from the topsoil but no trace of contemporary features. The material was suspected to have originated from an unlocated settlement site outside the pipeline easement, in the vicinity of Mill Farm or the Golden Cross road junction. An inspection of the trench excavated for a new aeration tank showen that silts extended deeper than -0.5 metres OD; the post-glacial ground surface was not exposed. [Au] |
