Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken on behalf of Andrew Horner Great West 2003 at Unit G, Moreton Business Park, Moreton-on-Lugg, Herefordshire (NGR SO 50192, 46455; HER ref EHE80298). Evidence of Roman occupation and an earlier palaeochannel had previously been recorded in the vicinity, to the west and the south of the current development area. All groundworks were archaeologically monitored, including foundation pads and drainage. Only modern made ground and natural alluvium and geology were observed within the development area, demonstrating that this area had been previously subject to levelling when it was in use as a military camp in the 20th century. Therefore, no archaeological deposits/finds of any significance were found on to the Unit G site, though it could not be proven that the Roman and earlier deposits recorded in the vicinity during previous development, had not once extended this far and now been removed by the modern truncation. |
