Abstract: |
A watching brief during groundworks four a housing development on land to the east of Ancaster road recorde a series of deposits overlying the naturral limestone geology. A large linear feature, interpreted as the original western edge of the Car Dyke, was the earliest activity identified. Evidence for the existence of an undated small ditch and pond, cut during the same phase was unidentified. Modern activity comprised various dumped deposits and the remains of a 19th century railway bank. Finds retrieved during the investigattion included several sherds of unstratified pottery dating to the Romano-British, medieval and post-medieval periods. A small flint scraper, probably of prehistoric date, was also retireved. [Au(adp)] |
