| Collection Title | Data from a Trial Trenching at Hunt's Green Farm, Grim's Ditch, Buckinghamshire, 2020 (HS2 Phase One) |
| Description | The Site has high potential to contribute to multiple HERDS objectives through further examination of the archaeological remains encountered during the evaluation as discussed in Section 9 above. At present there is only limited opportunity for the Site to contribute to objectives KC2, 5 and 6 due to the absence of features dated to the Mesolithic and Early Neolithic, although further work may reveal as yet unencountered remains. There is the clear potential for further and more detailed examination of Grim's Ditch, with the data provided in this dataset suggesting its continuation past its 'known' upright remains and path. In addition to the HERDS Objectives outlined the in the Project Plan, further work within the Site may also be able to contribute to the following objectives: -KC21: Assess the evidence for regional and cultural distinctiveness along the length of the route in the Romano-British period, with particular regard to the different settlement types encountered along the route. -KC23:Identify evidence for late Roman occupation and attempt to identify any continuity in settlement patterns between the end of the Romano-British period and the Early Medieval period. Beyond the investigation of the Grim's Ditch monument and planned trial trenching within 'Field H', it is uncertain what further work may be undertaken on the Site. |
