Abstract:
Excavation of three trenches for the installation of a storage sewer, pumping station and pipe, produced no significant archaeological deposits, but did produce residual archaeological artefacts. The artefacts were recovered from a single context of re-deposited natural (context 02), and consisted of an copper alloy coin of approximately 18th century date, tile from the late 18th to 19th century and transfer printed pottery from the19th century. The flint artefacts are clearly residual. The geoarchaeological results show that the excavations did not get to sufficient depth to expose marine deposits underlying the local head which at this particular location reached a substantial depth. However, the presence of very occasional rounded beach pebbles in the basal units indicates the possibility that underlying beach deposits in the vicinity were being reworked. It has confirmed suspicions that there is a significant Tertiary character to Head Deposits in the area and has provided contextual evidence to help in our continued investigations into coastline evolution in the locality and in identifying the location of previously recorded Pleistocene organic sedimentary facies.
