Abstract: |
A programme of topsoil stripping was monitored on a site which had been identified as being of archaeological potential. During the first topsoil strip of Phase 1 for the quarry development, archaeological features were recorded; comprising pit alignments and ditches. Some of the pits contained Roman and Bronze Age pottery. The second strip revealed further pits relating to the pit alignment but in a different direction. The continuation of the ditches seen in the first strip was also revealed as well as a new ditch and several isolated pits, one of which contained Roman and other Bronze Age pottery. Environmental samples were taken from selected contexts. [Au] |
