Abstract: |
A watching brief was carried out during topsoil stripping and the excavation of foundation trenches at a development site. Prehistoric pits containing worked flints had been recorded to the north and south of the site, whilst parts of the outer bailey of a medieval castle had been excavated in the area. Parts of a medieval field system had also been observed. During the watching brief, two sherds of Romano-British pottery and a medieval sherd were recovered. A blackened patch, similar to a deposit which had sealed prehistoric pits to the south, was noted. It was concluded that construction work at the site was unlikely to have caused any significant archaeological damage. [Au(adp)] |
