Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at the proposed site of factory units. The positioning of a car park above part of a Scheduled Ancient Monument, to be sealed beneath a hard-standing of quarry waste, was also to be considered. During the evaluation, two Bronze Age ring ditches were identified within the SAM. Aerial photographs, geophysical survey and sample excavation recorded features which probably represented two phases of field boundary ditches and enclosures. One of these may have been contemporary with a pattern of ridge and furrow. Post-medieval pottery was recovered during field-walking. It was noted that modern ploughing had reduced the quality of the surviving remains. [Au(adp)] |
