Abstract: |
South West Archaeology Ltd. were instructed by David Wilson Homes to undertake a desk-based assessment and walkover survey on land at Crimchard, Chard, in Somerset. The walkover survey and the desk-based and cartographic research indicate that there is some archaeological potential within the proposed development area. The walkover survey failed to identify any clear earthworks within the area of the development, with the exception of a possible former holloway running north-south along the eastern hedge. There is also the very slight trace of a relict field boundary that was removed in the 20th century. A small assemblage of artefactual material was recovered from the topsoil, mainly comprised of 18th or 19th century South Somerset coarsewares, a single sherd from a Westerwald tankard, brick fragments and a single flint flake. |
