Abstract: |
An archaeological trench evaluation on land adjacent to Cullompton cemetery (ST 0156 0757), was carried out during November 2009. The work comprised the machine-excavation of 5 trenches totalling 270m in length, with each trench 1.8m wide. Excavation revealed evidence of quarrying activity, probably modern in date, within the southern half of the site. Deep deposits of clay loam had been introduced to fill pits and level the ground across this area. The investigation revealed little evidence of pre-modern activity. A small collection of worked flint and residual post-medieval pottery was recovered. |
