Abstract:
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken on the groundworks for a new detached bungalow. An initial phase of ground reduction and the mechanical excavation of the foundations for the new build identified a deposit sequence which consisted of a topsoil horizon, an undated ploughsoil or buried soil horizon, a natural horizon and in places where the excavations went deepest, an underlying natural horizon of humic peat. This deposit sequence was recorded within four representative sections. One sherd of 13th-14th century pottery and three brick fragments of 14th-15th century date were recovered from the basal peat deposit. It is thus considered that this peat deposit was the product of a period of waterlogging from the medieval period. The overlying natural horizon also included within its make-up small pockets of peat. This natural deposit is interpreted as a possible flood deposit of alluvial silts, representing the product of a past episode of flooding from the nearby River Welland, a deposition interspersed with small areas of temporary waterlogging. The mechanical excavation of the two new soakaways and the new service trench also identified the same deposit sequence of the topsoil horizon, an undated ploughsoil or buried soil horizon and the natural horizon, which was recorded within a further four representative sections.
