Abstract: |
A total of six evaluation trenches were excavated within the site, as shown in Figure 2. Trench 1 was proposed to be 30m in length, however, due to the presence of a gas pipe, as well as on-site space constraints, it was only possible to excavate the trench to a length of 18m. Trench 3 was slightly shorter than proposed due to space constraints. The trenches, as dug, represented just under 3% of the proposed development area. The evaluation identified natural clay marl substrates overlaid by a clay silt subsoil, which was in turn sealed by a clay silt topsoil. A total of four furrows were present in the southern part of the site. No other archaeological features or finds were present within the evaluation trenches and, therefore, the site is considered to be of low archaeological potential. |
