Abstract: |
An archaeological trench evaluation on land at Crowpits Copse, Sidbury, Sidmouth, Devon (NGR SY 1336 9635), was undertaken by AC archaeology during December 2014. It was carried out to test the results of a recent geophysical survey which had identified linear and pit like anomalies on the site that were considered to be of archaeological interest. The evaluation confirmed the presence of a number of subsoil archaeological features, including a discrete pitlike feature and historic field systems or boundaries, probably dating to the post-medieval period. A series of drainage channels or natural hollows was also recorded. A number of the magnetic anomalies do not correspond with sub-surface archaeological features and are likely to have derived from near-surface geological variations. |
