A Phase 2 Archaeological Watching Brief at St Genewys Church, Northorpe Road, Scotton, Lincolnshire
N Hall
A Phase 2 archaeological watching brief was carried out on the groundworks pertaining to the part removal and reinstatement of a second section of the post-medieval eastern churchyard boundary wall. All of the groundworks pertaining to this project, which comprised the hand removal and dismantling of a second section of the stone walling of the eastern churchyard boundary wall were continually monitored and recorded. This second section adjoined the reconstructed first section, which had been monitored earlier in 2014. The dismantling by hand of the second section of the dry stone wall fabric of the eastern churchyard boundary wall involved the removal of the outer wall face which consisted of uncoursed and unmortared very roughly faced, shaped and worked angular limestone fragments, an inner rubble core composed of further angular limestone fragments within matrices of redeposited graveyard soils and redeposited natural and the very partial removal of the inner wall face to the south-east, composed of the same material as the corresponding outer wall face. The partial removal of this inner face exposed in turn a small area of graveyard soils. However, because most of the inner face of the wall and the basal foundation stones were left in situ, no further graveyard soils or that of the underlying natural subsoil horizon were exposed. There were no finds from this archaeological watching brief and no further fragments of disarticulated human bone were found.

A Pre-Determination Archaeological Evaluation of Land to the Rear of 39-51, Hawthorn Road, Cherry Willingham, Lincolnshire
N Hall
A pre-determination archaeological evaluation involving the excavation of three trenches was undertaken prior to a proposed new residential development on this site. This evaluation did not identify any archaeological activity and no finds. Within the fist trench, a deposit sequence consisting of a modern made ground deposit overlay a natural horizon. Within the remaining two trenches, a modern made ground deposits was found to extend to the base of both excavations.

A Pre-Determination Archaeological Evaluation on Land Adjacent to the Former Plough Inn, Main Road, Deeping St Nicholas, Lincolnshire
N Hall
A pre-determination archaeological evaluation was involving the excavation of four trial trenches was carried out in advance of a proposed new residential development. No archaeological activity was identified on this site and there were no finds. The finding comprised deposit sequences that consisted of a modern imported topsoil horizon, various modern made ground deposits, an undated buried soil horizon and an underlying natural alluvial horizon of silts. A large and substantial modern disturbance occupied much of the area of Trench 1.

A Pre-Determination Archaeological Evaluation on Land to the Rear of 36, Cow Lane, Tealby, Lincolnshire
N Hall
A pre-determination archaeological evaluation comprising the excavation of four trenches was undertaken prior to a new residential development. This identified a north west-south east orientated linear ditch, which had a wide and deep profile and was substantial. The fill of this feature did not produce any finds and it appeared to be cut from a relatively high level. It was tentatively interpreted as a possible drainage dyke of possible post-medieval origin since it does not appear on the O.S. maps of the area from the 1880s onwards. This feature was not considered to be significant. This evaluation did not produce any finds. The other findings comprised a simple deposit sequence of a modern topsoil, undated buried plough soils and an underlying natural horizon, that was recorded within five representative sections. This sequence was consistent throughout the assessed survey area.

A Pre-Determination Archaeological Field Evaluation (Phase 1) at the Crossroads Nurseries, Main Road, Quadring, Lincolnshire
N Hall
A pre-determination archaeological evaluation was carried out on the Phase 1 development site, for which an application for planning consent for the erection of nine new dwellings had been made. Three trenches were excavated. Within Trench 1, there were negative findings with a modern trackway and hardcore base along with a modern backfill/make deposit overlying the natural horizon. Within Trench 2, the findings consisted solely of a 19th century land rain along with a deposit sequence of a topsoil horizon, an undated buried soil or ploughsoil horizon and the same natural horizon. Within Trench 3, the modern topsoil horizon overlay the natural horizon. At the south-western end of this trench was a second 19th century land drain, which probably drained into a drainage dyke, which was also recorded at this end of the trench. The dyke is still extant and visible on the ground to the north.

An Archaeological Evaluation at Easthorpe Manor. Easthorpe Road, Easthorpe, Leicestershire
N Hall
An archaeological evaluation comprising the excavation of a single trial trench was excavated to accompany and inform a Class 7 scheduled monument consent and in advance of the proposed conversion of the cart shed to a residential dwelling with the boundaries of the scheduled Easthorpe Manor and associated village earthworks. The trench was positioned across a trackway entrance to the site. and was orientated from east-west. The evaluation revealed a sequence of four trackway surfaces, two of which are of modern origin. The third surface in this sequence may be of post-medieval origin and consisted of compacted earth and a high density of brick/tile fragments. Below this, the final surface in this sequence may possibly be of medieval origin and was also composed of compacted earth albeit with a lesser density of brick/tile fragments. This sequence of trackway surfaces was truncated to both east and west by the line of modern service trenches, which were sealed by the current modern tarmac surface. This trench also revealed the 19th century foundations of the Cart Shed. There were no finds from this excavation.

An Archaeological Evaluation at Orchard House, Priory Road, Stamford, Lincolnshire
N Hall
An archaeological evaluation comprising the excavation of a single trial trench was undertaken within the build footprint of a new rear extension to an existing residential dwelling. The evaluation identified a deposit sequence consisting of a modern topsoil, a probable post-medieval ploughsoil horizon and a natural horizon of cornbrash. The topsoil yielded one residual sherd of 13th - 15th century pottery. The evaluation also identified a number of discrete archaeological features comprising two undated postholes, an undated north-south orientated linear ditch with a rounded northern terminus and a shallow pit which produced one sherd of 10th - 11th century pottery. All of these features were sealed by the post-medieval ploughsoil horizon and were cut into the underlying natural horizon of cornbrash. The development site was situated to the immediate east of the scheduled Whitefriars.

An Archaeological Evaluation of Land Behind the Old Post Office, Mar Dyke East, Saltfleetby, Lincolnshire
N Hall
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken of three trenches in advance of the erection of a new dwelling, detached garage and access driveway. Two sherds of 13th-early/mid 14th century and one of mid 15th-16th century pottery were recovered from the topsoil horizon. The line of an approximately east-west orientated ditch was recorded within Trench 3. This had a shallow and truncated profile and yielded finds of 50 sherds of 12th-13th century pottery. This archaeological evaluation identified a medieval ditch that yielded finds of 50 sherds of 12th-13th century pottery. Two further sherds of 13th-15th century pottery were recovered from the topsoil horizon.

An Archaeological Evaluation on Land to the Rear of 21, Broadgate, Deeping St James, Lincolnshire
N Hall
An archaeological evaluation comprising the excavation of three trenches took place prior to the construction of a new residential development. The single archaeological feature located was recorded within Trench 1, which was the cut of a large post-medieval pit. This produced finds of two sherds of 18th-19th century pottery. The site deposit sequence consisted a a topsoil/ploughsoil horizon, which overlay a natural horizon. The topsoil produced finds of one sherd of late 19th-mid 20th century pottery along with one fragment of pantile of 19th-20th century date.

An Archaeological Evaluation on Land to the West of Middlegate Lane, Orby, Lincolnshire
N Hall
This pre-determination archaeological evaluation did not identify any archaeological activity on this site and there were no finds. This field assessment identified a simple deposit sequence which comprised a modern topsoil horizon, an undated buried ploughsoil horizon and an underlying natural horizon of clays. This deposit sequence was recorded within three Representative Sections. No archaeological activity or finds which could be associated with either the medieval settlement of Orby or with the postulated line of the medieval road from Orby to Addlethorpe were identified.

An Archaeological Watching Brief at 1 Rosemary Lane, Lincoln
N Hall
An archaeological watching brief was carried out during the groundworks for a new rear extension. These groundworks comprised the mechanical ground reduction of an area to accommodate a new concrete raft foundation. Below a modern gravel yard surface was a toposil/cultivation soil horizon which was encountered throughout the monitored area and which extended to the base of these excavations. This culyivation soil deposit yielded one sherd of residual Roman pottery and five sherds of medieval pottery. The removal of a northern site boundary wall of brick revealed behind it a further east-west orientated wall foundation of probable post-medieval origin. The wall foundation was constructed of roghly coursed, roughly worked and shaped limestone blocks with no evidence of any bonding material or of a foundation trench cut. The top of this foundation was also encountered at a relatively high level, on or just below existing modern ground levels. The foundation was in turn truncated by three modern stanchion bases which were associated with the construction of a neighbouring steel framed building dating to the 1950s-1960s. The remnants of a late 19th century rear outbuilding associated with the house were also removed during the course of the monitored ground reduction.

An Archaeological Watching Brief at 14, Occupation Road, Lincoln, Lincolnshire
N Hall
An archaeological watching brief took place on the groundworks to a new side extension and a new rear extension to an existing residential dwelling. This identified a simple deposit sequence of a modern topsoil horizon, a buried soil or ploughsoil of horizon and a natural horizon of cornbrash. No archaeological activity was identified on this site although four sherds of 18th - 20th century pottery and three residual sherds of Roman pottery were recovered from the buried soil/ploughsoil horizon.

An Archaeological Watching Brief at 18/20 Michaelgate, Lincoln, Lincolnshire
N Hall
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken during the groundworks pertaining to the construction of a new single storey rear extension. The archaeological monitoring identified a simple deposit sequence of a modern made ground deposit which incorporated a disturbed topsoil within its matrix throughout the monitored area. The archaeological monitoring did not identify any archaeological activity, did not locate the line of Ermine Street as it did not achieve a sufficient depth to do so, or of any evidence of other multi-period archaeological activity identified nearby. A small assemblage of 19th - 20th century pottery was recovered, but was not retained.

An Archaeological Watching Brief at 2, Northgate, Lincoln, Lincolnshire
N Hall
A watching brief was carried during the excavation of two test pits and the erection of a new rear extension. The monitoring of the test pits identified a modern toposil overlying a sequence of three limestone quarry pit fills, two of post-medieval and the third possibly of medieval date. The second test pit was excavated to a depth of 2.2m before the natural horizon of weathered limestone and flint fragments was reached. These excavations yielded one sherd of 18th-19th century pottery and one residual sherd of Roman pottery. The monitoring of the rear extension identified several modern made ground deposits and foundations associated with a previous demolished rear extension. Below this was the uppermost and latest of the quarry pit fills that had already been identified in the nearby test pits. This yielded a second residual sherd of Roman pottery. These quarry pit fills were both substantial in terms of depths and their extent, they were located in the whole of the monitored area. The extent of the actual quarry pit(s) was undertermined. It was anticipated that the postulated line of the Roman Fosse Road might traverse the site. In the event, this probably had already been removed, if its line had crossed the site.
