Abstract: |
The archaeological works consisted of ten evaluation trenches which were located across the development area. Non-significant overburden was removed, under constant archaeological supervision, to the top of archaeological remains or the underlying natural deposits, whichever was encountered first. This was achieved through use of a 13 ton 360 mechanical excavator, equipped with a toothless grading bucket. Spoil tips were visually scanned for finds. The evaluation has revealed two cut linear features within Trench 1. Ditch [104] yielded a single small crumb of probable Prehistoric pottery, however, this pottery was heavily abraded and it is unlikely that it was within it’s original context, therefore this feature is currently undated. However, ditch [104] was sealed by the subsoil, so it is likely to be of some antiquity. The second linear present at the south eastern end of Trench 1 was late Post-medieval/Modern in date. With the exception of a small quantity of late Post-medieval/Modern CBM, no archaeological finds, features or deposits were present in any of the evaluation trenches. The site is considered to have a low potential for further archaeological finds, features or deposits. |
