Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by InterRoute Area 2 to undertake an archaeological watching brief during the road renewal works on the A40 between the villages of Over and Highnam between the junction with the Chepstow Lodge roundabout and the junction with the B4215 to Highnam. The Route passes through the floodplain of the River Severn, where natural ground levels are low, on land gently sloping to the south-east. Geologically, the route lies on Lower Lias limestone (Charmouth Mudstone formation), overlain by alluvial deposits. |
