Abstract: |
A three trench evaluation on land adjacent to the extant remains of the former Saxon sea defence known as Roman Bank. Less than 250m to the south-east of the site the earthwork is protected as a nationally important Scheduled Monument. The bank material was observed in the east of the site overlying the laminated silts of the former mud flats. Elsewhere the silts recorded are likely to be evidence of a topsoil that formed over the bank and an accumulation of material formed by erosion of the earthwork and windblown deposits collecting against the defence. |
