Abstract: |
An archaeological trench evaluation on land forming Phase 2 of a proposed residential development adjacent to Cades Farm, Wellington, Somerset was carried out by AC archaeology. The site of the proposed development lies to the northeast of Wellington, within an area where previous archaeological investigations have identified evidence for late Iron Age and Romano-British settlement. The evaluation comprised the machine-excavation of eight trenches, with a combined length of 240m, located within a single field within the northern fringe of the development site, in order to confirm the results of the previous geophysical survey. With the exception of a modern drain and a small quantity of 19th century and later finds, no evidence for archaeological activity was present. |
