Abstract: |
The topographic survey defined a series of very low level earthwork anomalies, of which the only significant feature was that of a possible north-south aligned ditch. This feature was anticipated but not encountered during the watching brief monitoring. The watching brief phase of this project monitored both the removal of topsoil within the corridor of the race track extension and the excavation of a new drainage system. The earliest archaeological activity encountered at this site was represented by a large spread of 19th century refuse. [Au(abr)] |
