Abstract: |
Three sites near March were identified as possible locations for wind turbines. Following a desktop survey each site was subjected to surface survey and geophysical survey. The fieldwalking was generally unproductive, but the geophysical survey revealed a number of features of potential archaeological interest. A potentially significant Romano-British rural settlement or farmyard complex was defined on the north roddon. The Honey Hill area revealed a highly important collection of Neolithic and Bronze Age sites, finds and monuments. The desktop survey suggested that the site had the greatest potential to reveal multi-period archaeological material. Unfortunately neither the surface nor the geophysical survey produced convincing evidence of an actual, specific site. There were, however, hints to suggest that the fringes of Honey Hill might produce Neolithic sites or features. [Au] |
