Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Lidl GmbH to undertake an archaeological watching brief during the construction of a new supermarket and associated car parking at Atherton Way, Brigg, North Lincolnshire (hereafter 'the Site'). The development area is located in an area of extensive prehistoric activity, with Bronze Age finds including the Brigg Logboat, the Brigg raft and a timber causeway being discovered in the immediate area. The Site remained undeveloped until 1969 and, given the lack of sub-surface disturbance and the Site's proximity to the course of the Old River Ancholme, there was potential for sub-surface archaeological deposits to have been preserved in waterlogged conditions and to survive in good condition. A programme of archaeological coring was carried out at the Site in 2011 in order to assess the potential for buried land surfaces and well preserved organic deposits and objects below the proposed supermarket building. The results indicated little potential for significant archaeological remains to be present and therefore the residual risk of encountering archaeological remains would be mitigated through a watching brief. Following discussions with North Lincolnshire Council a watching brief was proposed during all excavations into the alluvial deposits underlying the Site, and to fully record any significant remains encountered. No archaeological remains were revealed during the groundworks and the development Site does not contain appear to contain significant archaeological or palaeoenvironmental remains. The archive from the fieldwork is currently held at Wessex Archaeology's Sheffield Office and will be deposited with the North Lincolnshire Museum in due course under the site code BRIBY.
