Abstract: |
An archaeological and cultural heritage assessment attempted to identify factors which needed consideration in further developing or refining route options for the proposed A27 junction improvements at Crockerhill. The study involved a detailed desk-top assessment and preliminary walkover. The principal constraints identified were an area of prehistoric activity to the north of Crockerhill, possibly related to a Bronze Age settlement focus, and the possible presence of deposits and artefacts of Palaeolithic date in the southern zone of the study area. All of the scheme options were to have minor effects both on poorly preserved medieval ridge and furrow and the assumed line of a Roman road. The four scheme options were sorted into an order of preference. [Au(abr)] |
