Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was connnissioned by AMEC Wind Energy to undertake a watching brief on land at the North Shore Golf Course, Skegness, Lincolnshire. The work is in support of the submission of a planning application for a new electricity cable at NGR TF 57000 65200, and was undertaken in December 2006. The fieldwork comprised the monitoring of topsoil removal across a c. 1Om wide easement and the monitoring of the excavation of a cable trench between Roman Bank Rd, the A52, and sand dunes adjacent to the beach. A sequence of, probably prehistoric, alluvial deposits was seen, but no archaeological artefacts were present to confirm this suggested date. Although the remains of possible reeds indicated a stabilisation horizon there was no associated anthropogenic material. A post-medieval ditch adjacent and parallel to the public footpath may have been backfilled when the golf course was laid out. |
