| Abstract: |
A number of potential archaeological sites were revealed within the development area. In field 1, at its north-western corner, possible archaeological features were clustered along the eastern boundary of the field. Dating was inconclusive, although a small number of flint flakes and Roman pottery sherds collected in the vicinity of the features suggested possible prehistoric and Roman activity. In field 2, at the northeast corner, archaeological features dating to the Second World War were identified. The features appeared to represent ring-ditches, pits and enclosures. No dating evidence was collected from any of these features. Air photo studies revealed archaeological features in the southerly part of the area without access, including a possible trackway and a possible ring-ditch. [Au(adp)] |
