Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at the proposed site of a residential development in Brigstock, a town which had once formed the centre of a major Saxon royal estate. A desk-top survey identified that Iron Age and Roman pits, a late Saxon structure, a late Saxon/early medieval ditch and a medieval/post-medieval wall had been recorded in the surrounding area. During the evaluation, a series of pits were identified. One contained early/middle Saxon pottery, whilst the remainder were of post-medieval date. A small number of undated post-holes were also revealed, and a residual sherd of medieval pottery was recovered. It was noted that the survival of archaeological deposits was poor. [AIP] |
