Abstract: |
A watching brief was held over soil-stripping at the site of a proposed open cast coal site after a gradiometer survey identified several anomalies of probable archaeological nature. Ditches, possibly forming part of a system of land division, of unknown date, were identified together with evidence of ridge and furrow ploughing. There was no evidence for a postulated early medieval farmstead on the site. [Au] |
