Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Arcus Renewable Energy Consulting Ltd on behalf of ASC Renewables, to undertake an archaeological strip map and sample at Anglian Water Sewage Treatment Works, Newton Marsh Lane, Tetney, Grimsby, Lincolnshire, NGR TA 33224 03287. The work was in advance of the erection of two 105m high wind turbines at the Sewage Treatment Works and took place between June 2012 and February 2013. Previous work at the Site revealed evidence for Bronze Age salt making. All groundwork excavations were monitored, with excavation taking place to the top of the upper archaeological horizon or the impact level of the proposed works, whichever was reached first. Mechanical excavation continued to be monitored where excavation continued beyond the upper archaeological horizon. No archaeological deposits were revealed during the strip map and sample. Natural and alluvial clays were revealed beneath the sites of the proposed wind turbines. The alluvial clays were overlain by modern made ground and truncated by services associated with the modern sewage treatment works. During excavation of the cable trenches for the wind turbines in February 2013 occasional fragments of marine shell were observed in the alluvial clays towards the southern end of the Site, but no evidence of human activity was noted. |
