Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was carried on land off the A1077 Phoenix Parkway, Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire, NGR 2006/0421, in July 2008. This work was carried out in advance of the proposed construction of a residential care home. This work was undertaken on behalf of the client Prime Life Ltd by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services. Nine evaluation trenches were excavated over anomalies identified by Geophysical survey. Most of these anomalies were investigated and interpreted as naturally occurring or geological features including variations in the natural and tree throw pits. Archaeological deposits including isolated ditches running approximately north-south across the centre of the development area were identified and a concentration of post-holes with two nearby cremation pits of probable Bronze Age date in the south-east corner of the development area. The site archive will be held at North Lincolnshire Museums, under site code CCRD. |
