Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Seven Trent Water (the Client) to undertake an archaeological watching brief on the Clipstone to Edwinstowe Outfall Sewer Renewal. The pipeline runs through mixed agricultural land from Edwinstowe (National Grid Reference 46173 36591) to Old Clipstone (NGR 46023 36386) in Nottinghamshire. No direct evidence was recovered during the watching brief for human activity predating the 19th century. Although Romano-British remains associated with possible settlement, and medieval occupation in the area of King John's Palace near the south end of the route attest to a long history of occupation in the vicinity, the negative results illustrate that known occupation in the area prior to the 19th-century produced little evidence in terms of artefacts or intrusive features within the monitored areas of the pipeline. The only features observed during the course of the watching brief relate to 19th-century agricultural water management activity, a water meadow sluice and feeder channel system forming part of the Duke of Portland's irrigation scheme. |
