Abstract: |
All areas directly impacted by the development were subjected to the Strip, Map and Record, including stanchion bases and the footprint of the industrial unit An Archaeological Strip, Map and Record was carried out by MAP Archaeological Practice Ltd., on land off Hopper Hill, Scarborough, on behalf of Consumer Retail. The work was undertaken in advance of the erection of an industrial storage unit (planning reference 18/01546/FL). The site is located within the Vale of Pickering, and within an area of known archaeological activity ranging in date from the early prehistoric periods with extensive remains of later prehistoric and Romano-British activity being widely recognised. A series of features were identified on the site, including linear and curvilinear gullies and an east to west orientated ditch. Although the majority of features remain undated, a ring gully located close to the southern boundary of the site contained an assemblage of pottery which dated to between the 1st century BC and the 1st century AD. The limited scale of excavation somewhat prohibits any detailed interpretation of the features although it is highly likely that they represent a continuation of contemporary and comparable features which have been extensively identified on land to the east of Hopper Hill. |
