Abstract:
The aims of the archaeological works were to identify and record any archaeological remains as they appeared during the scheme of works without causing significant delays to the groundworks. The monitoring was designed to apply to groundworks associated with a large water treatment tank and pipe trenches and any related landscaping or intrusive groundworks. Excavation was carried out by a 360° excavator with both toothed buckets and toothless ditching buckets. During the course of the watching brief on land east of The Bungalow, 1 Middle Coldcoats, no finds or features were encountered. In the areas of groundworks away from the property, topsoil uniformly overlay natural boulder clay. Adjacent to the property’s fence, on a raised area of land, topsoil overlay made ground, almost certainly deposited in the 1960s to create a flat platform prior to construction of the dwelling. A notable depression in the area of the water treatment tank pit excavation, on the edge of the floodplain, is likely to represent historic quarrying for boulder clay deposits. If this is the case, the land on which the bulk of the works was carried out on may have been reduced in height by more than a metre in the past.
