Abstract:
An archaeological assesment was carried out on the proposed RNLI road route along the Spurn. The assessment identified that due to cyclical processes of erosion and deposition of the peninsula, no archaeolgy on the Spurn predates 250 years ago. The earliest features identified were small 19th century field plots and the light house. Much of the archaeology identified identified were associated with WWI and WWII defences. These defences comprised of; a WWI millitary railway, gun emplacements and pill boxes; WWII gun emplacments, pillboxes and anti tank ditches. Sea walls and the remains of cootages associatde with the light house were also identified. [Au(abr)]
