Abstract: |
Trenching was conducted along the route of a planned new watermain pipe. Twelve archaeological trenches were cut, representing a 5% sample of the area disturbed by the pipe trench. Near the northern end of the route two features were revealed in a single trench. These include a ditch containing pottery fragments of Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age date and a small black pit with a charcoal-rich fill with struck flint of probable later Bronze Age date. Both features were protected under a thick layer of colluvium (hillwash). No other trenches revealed archaeological features or deposits of significance and severe plough truncation was witnessed in many trenches. A single unstratified pottery sherd of late medieval glazed pottery was recovered as an isolated find from the trench at the extreme western end of the pipe route |
