Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at a proposed development site. Neolithic, Iron Age and Roman remains had been recorded in the surrounding area. During the evaluation, a shallow linear feature, a possible pit and two depressions containing a small number of burnt and struck flints were recorded. The pit also contained a sherd of Roman and one of medieval pottery; it may have been an animal burrow or a modern feature. Modern refuse pits were observed. It was concluded that any archaeological deposits which may have been present had been heavily truncated or destroyed. [AIP] |
