Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken prior to the proposed construction of a pumping station. Previous archaeological work in the vicinity of the proposed pumping station suggested that prehistoric, Roman, Saxon and medieval artefacts, features and deposits might have been present on the site. However, during the evaluation the only two features found were a field drain and a drainage feature, both of which were modern in date. As a result, it seemed probable that the development area had not been used in such a way to warrant the cutting of features through the natural clay until relatively recently. It had probably been mostly used, since the Iron Age, for agricultural purposes. [Au(abr)] |
