Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Summerleaze Ltd to carry out an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land for the Denham North Extension, Denham, Buckinghamshire centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) 504310 185200. The area is subject of a new planning application for mineral extraction, which is due to be submitted in 2016. The Site comprises around 27.4 ha of agricultural land. Due to difficulties in access only Area A - Fields 2 and 3 were investigated during this programme of works. Thirty five trenches were proposed but only 34 could be excavated due to on-site constraints. A total of four ditches (three of which formed the remains of a probable medieval or post-medieval field system) and a clearly modern feature were observed - indicating an absence of archaeological remains of interest or importance within the proposed new extraction Site. The evaluation took place between the 30th November and 11th December 2015. |
