Abstract: |
Bardwell, land at Firwood, Low Street (BAR 104, TL 9418 7310) evaluation trenching for a development comprising two detached dwellings revealed a substantial depth of overburden at a site close to the floodplain of the Black Bourn River that would have been on the margin of habitable land in the past. Below the 1300mm of top and subsoil a single ditch of medieval date was identified though the number of pottery sherds recovered and the scarcity of the environmental evidence in its fill suggests that this site was peripheral to any areas of intensive past activity and appears to have been rough grassland at this time. Stray finds in the upcast spoil were mainly of recent date though two medieval sherds were found in the subsoil. |
