Abstract: |
Nine trenches were excavated in advance of the construction of residential development, landscaping, public open space, access and infrastructure. No features of archaeological significance were encountered. Opportunity was also taken to examine groundworks being carried out during construction of the Brough Southern Relief Road and associated drainage excavations; again no finds of archaeological interest were noted. On the basis of the results, it was recommended that development over the majority of the site could proceed without archaeological impediment. The exception was the south-eastern corner of the site, inaccessible to evaluation due to the presence of greenhouses, and in proximity to known archaeological remains. Following the removal of the greenhouses three trenches were excavated with a further three being added to evaluate adequately the area lying closest to a series of cropmarks, to the south and the east of the site. The majority of the features discovered could be assigned either to a phase of late 18th to 19th century land drainage, or a later phase of 20th century horticulture. However, a number of undated features were found that could not be readily assigned to either of the two above phases, and may have been of earlier date. [Au(abr)] |
