Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation consisting of five trenches. The earliest deposit encountered in all five trenches was natural sandy clay which was truncated in Trench 5 by the only significant archaeological feature encountered on the site a circular pit dating to the Roman period. Other features on site, found in Trenches 4 and 5, included a treebole, a posthole and a construction cut for a wall but these all dated from the very late 19th century at the earliest and certainly in the case of the posthole and the construction cut were modern. Deposits in all trenches were overlain by one or more layers of post-medieval/modern subsoil or levelling deposits and sealed by modern topsoil. It was concluded that only the deepest cut features on site would have survived the truncation that resulted from the construction of Green Cottage and its immediate environs. |
