Abstract: |
Pre-Construct Archaeology (Lincoln) carried out an archaeological evaluation for Axis on behalf Eco2 Ltd on land to the north of Boston Road, near Sleaford, in the North Kesteven district of Lincolnshire (centred on NGR: TF 0868 4586). Extensive evidence of activity of the Roman period, spanning the mid 1st - late 3rd centuries AD was recorded. The observed evidence consisted of several large pits, some reused as rubbish pits; boundary and possible enclosure ditches; gullies and postholes of possible structural origins; and possible 'working hollows' and furnace or oven pits. Two inhumation burials of Roman date and a possible truncated/disturbed cremation burial were also observed. The results of the evaluation indicate that the southern third of the site was densely utilised and possibly occupied during the Roman period and that the intensity of land use diminished notably to the north, although enclosures and field systems may be anticipated in this area. Evidence of medieval ridge and furrow agriculture was also recorded as well as post-medieval field boundaries. |
