Abstract: |
Allen Archaeology Ltd was commissioned by Prospect Archaeology on behalf of Taylor Pearson Developments Ltd, to undertake a programme of archaeological evaluation by trial trenching on land off Drapers Place, Spalding, Lincolnshire, to fulfil a condition of planning consent for a residential development. The evaluation comprised the excavation of five 15m long trenches across the proposed development area. The trenches revealed a deep sequence of recent made ground deposits, extending to between 0.9m and 1.9m below the existing ground surface, and sealing natural alluvial layers typical of the fenland environment of the site and its surroundings. Structural elements of the former 19th century housing that occupied the site was recorded in Trenches 3 and 4 towards the west side of the site, comprising walls, floor and yard surfaces and a soakaway. |
