Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken adjacent to the existing south stand of the racecourse in advance of a planned extension to and modernisation of this building. Two trenches totalling 13m were excavated in the turf adjacent to the tarmac standing and offset from the electricity sub station. These encountered the underlying natural gravels at a depth of between 0.9 and 1m, yet there was no evidence for any truncation within this area. No archaeology was present, though a single tree throw was found. |
