Abstract: |
In January 2008 ASC Ltd conducted an archaeological evaluation at Pound Close, Gravelly Lane, Braughing, as part of a programme of archaeological works in advance of the proposed construction of twenty-six new houses. Twelve trenches were excavated totalling 330m in length, and representing 5% of the total study area. Archaeological remains were present in four trenches, mainly concentrated in the southeast quadrant of the site. Three large linear features, probably representing boundary ditches, were noted in separate trenches, and a further smaller linear, probably representing a gully, was recorded in two trenches. Three sub-rectangular features, which could either be pits or the end of ditches or gullies were also revealed. Three pottery sherds were recovered from two of the ditches and the gully. They appear to be slightly abraded, and late Iron Age and Roman in date. |
