| Abstract: |
A trial excavation and full excavation was carried out on the proposed quarry site. The earliest phase identified comprised of 16 pits of Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age date. These pits were identified as containing possibly deliberately deposited flint and pottery. The second phase identified comprised of four Late Bronze Age pits. A significant amount of prehistoric finds was also recovered from the topsoil and subsoil. A post-medieval rectangular enclosure was identified and was interpreted as a 17th century garden folly associated with Flixton Hall. The remains of trenches and latrine pits were identified, relating to the use of the site as a training camp during the 1st World War. [Au(abr)] |
