Abstract: |
Between February and March 2005 Oxford Archaeology carried out a field evaluation at land to the east of St Georges Way, Pan, Newport, Isle of Wight. The evaluation comprised 15 test pits in the southern part of the development area, designed to investigate Pleistocene/ Palaeolithic deposits, and a geophysical survey of the whole area. The test pits indicated three separate areas of Pleistocene fluvial deposits (terraces), from which a small number of possible struck flints were recovered. No palaeo-environmental remains were present. One test pit encountered a large, shallow, feature of uncertain shape and extent, which contained 16th century finds. The geophysical survey showed slight traces of linear features or cultivation trends, but no obviously significant archaeological remains. |
