Abstract: |
The archaeological evaluation works are designed to mitigate the impact on the archaeological remains within the development area. Although the variable geology made it difficult to immediately recognise features any potential features were investigated. Most of those were found to be of natural origin. The only datable material recovered from secure contexts was modern (19th or 20th centuries) indicating recent agricultural disturbance. In addition a small flint flake was found in an unsecure context. There is the slim possibility that two of the features examined may be geological test pits: however there is no conclusive evidence to support this speculation. In summary no significant archaeological features were observed during the course of the evaluation works. |
