Abstract: |
This report presents the results of archaeological evaluation trenching carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) on land at Lanacombe, Exmoor, Somerset. In total, four trenches were opened in order to investigate a series of anomalies identified in gradiometer and earth resistance surveys. The evaluation revealed a total of 12 'archaeological' features; none of which produced any datable finds. Extensive environmental sampling was obtained from many of these features. Two of the trenches failed to identify the anomalies identified by the geophysical survey. The other two trenches revealed a relatively complex sequence of intercutting ditches and pits, which are presumably Prehistoric in origin. |
