Abstract: |
Ground reduction within the footprint of the barn conversion building revealed no archaeological features or significant finds. The 'natural' chalk was uncovered chiefly on the east side of the development where the structure was terraced into the adjacent field. 7 soakaways were excavated (approx 2 metres square and 1-2 metres deep). Soakaway 7 on the north-west side of the development provided evidence for a possible former hedgeline on the west side of the building. This may have been removed at the time of the building's construction. A possible lynchet seen in section on the east side of the structure suggests the proximity of of a former field boundary at this location. An archaeological watching brief was the appropriate level of intervention for the groundwork undertaken. |
