Abstract: |
The site was located on a gravel island raised about 1.50m above surrounding fen. Twenty four trenches were opened. These were located in relation to known flint scatters and possible monuments identified from aerial photographic survey (Palmer and Cox 1996). Archaeological remains were uncovered across the site with a concentration on a raised sand bar that ran along the south of the proposed development area. Features included Neolithic pits with associated ditches, four partial ring ditches and numerous pits of possible Early Bronze Age date and a pit dating to the Late Mesolithic. |
