| Abstract: |
A field evaluation was carried out, consisting of three trenches in respect of a planning application for residential development of the site. A sequence of three stratified layers was revealed during the investigation consisting of the natural marlstone clay overlain by a thin undated ploughsoil layer representing the earliest evidence of human activity. This was in turn sealed by a slightly thicker layer of modern topsoil. Although the natural substrate was exposed throughout the excavation, no archaeological deposits were observed in any of the trenches. Two sherds of residual late medieval pottery were retrieved from the earlier ploughsoil. [Au(adp)] |
