Abstract: |
A former sports field off Bader Close was examined by trial trenching to investigate its possible archaeological potential. Archaeological records within a 600m radius of the site include a Bronze Age settlement, an individual arrowhead, two Roman coins and a post-medieval rabbit warren. The site is also close to areas of industrial and military significance dating to the 19th and 20th centuries. No features, deposits or finds of archaeological potential were identified. The soil profiles were surprisingly intact, showing little disturbance, modification or truncation except for some plough scaring presumed to be of fairly recent date. The third edition Ordnance Survey map of the area (c.1920) shows the site still as open heathland and it is likely that in the past this area was utilised as rough pasture. |
