Abstract: |
An evaluation was undertaken to determine the archaeological implications of proposed development. Geophysical survey of the site recorded magnetic anomalies that probably represented buried pits, ditches, a field boundary and modern land drains. Some of the larger pits identified were tentatively interpreted as being the remains of salterns. Seven ditches and gullies, representing medieval and post-medieval land division were identified. Additionally, a pit containing burnt soils from an industrial source, probably associated with salt extraction, was identified. These deposits represented those features that extended below the limit of a reworked subsoil, any shallower features having been destroyed. Cutting into the reworked subsoil were two pits and a ditch, the latter representing a boundary depicted on the 1906 O.S. map. [Au(abr)] |
