Abstract: |
Seven test-pits were dug across the site, targeted on the areas of greatest potential identified during a desk-based deposit modelling exercise. The exercise revealed a sequence of Lynch Hill Gravels overlain by thin deposits of clayey sand capped by Made Ground. No Langley Silt (brickearth) or Alluvial deposits were recorded; the sediment was instead substantially altered by near surface processes. The site was substantially contaminated with a history of development leading to truncation widely across the site. No further work is recommended. |
