Re-use Value Statement

The Archaeological Monitoring was undertaken on the excavation of 12 fence posts, these were installed to the eastern edge of the Site and the works did not intrude into the Scheduled protection area. All of the monitored fence posts were excavated to a depth that penetrated into the underlying geological substrate.

The proximity of the Site to the Grim's Ditch Scheduled Monument and to known archaeological activity recorded to the east meant that there was potential for the fencing works to encounter archaeological deposits.

Despite the potential of the Site, no archaeological deposits were identified, and no finds were recovered.

Although no archaeological deposits were identified, the relatively small sample size of the monitored fence posts should be noted however.

The negative results of the monitoring works do not contribute to informing HERDS objectives for the Site, and no further monitoring is required in the area of the fencing works.

Due to the lack of results and very constrained area of analysis the dataset presented here does not help answer wider research framework questions, and does not add to the wider archaeological work completed in this area.
