Abstract: |
The monitoring of the geotechnical works was carried out on 17-11-10 and 25-11-10. The bore hole monitored was initially hand dug to a depth of 1.20m, the length and width of each sample refers to the hand dug upper section. The test pits were excavated by a JCB backhoe loader excavator. Only borehole 03 was monitored to a depth of 8.30m. The method used to drill the bore holes made it difficult to identify the presence of any archaeological material. The remaining two bore holes were therefore not monitored. Previous geotechnical works were undertaken in November 2007 and consisted of the excavation of three test pits. The locations of the current test pits (TP02, TP03 and TP04) fall very close to the previous three and in order not to duplicate results they were not monitored. |
