Abstract: |
An archaeological trial trench evaluation was undertaken ahead groundworks associated with the construction of an new agricultural storage building and the extension of an existing agricultural building was undertaken by AC archaeology on land at Red Linhay, Crown Hill, Halberton, Devon. The site is situated in an area containing extensive evidence for prehistoric activity. The trial trench evaluation comprised the machine-excavation of six trenches totalling 90m in length and with each trench measuring 1.8m wide. Trenches 1-4 were located within a pasture plot to the southeast and Trenches 5-6 to the northwest within an orchard area. The investigations exposed only a simple soil sequence overlying the natural subsoil in each of the trial trenches. Despite the nearby prehistoric activity, no further evidence for this was exposed by these investigations. |
