Abstract:
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Wykeland Group Limited to undertake a programme of evaluation trenching on land north of Ferriby Road, Hessle, to fulfil a condition of consent for a planning application for the development of a Business Park. The site has previously been subject to a geophysical survey which identified a low density of anomalies of archaeological interest. A total of forty-one trenches were excavated across the development area. The northern section of the site (Trenches 1-28) contained no features of archaeological interest. The proposed geophysical anomalies were associated with variations in the natural geology or natural features and not of archaeological interest. The archaeological evaluation has demonstrated that the majority of the development area is of low archaeological significance. However, a dense cluster of features identified across the southern section of the Site are likely to be associated with agricultural settlement, with associated pottery dating from the Late Iron Age to early Romano-British period. A probable ring gully identified within Trench 32 as well as a small enclosure within Trenches 36 and 37 indicates low density settlement survives within the development area. The exact character and form of this settlement is however not clear from the combined results of the geophysical survey and evaluation trenching.
