Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation by trial trenching was undertaken on the site of a proposed power station. The evaluation was requested because the site lay in an area of the valley of the Little Ouse already known to be of archaeological significance. Four trenches were excavated down through the present artificially-raised ground surface, and the horizon at which archaeological material survived was identified; however, massive and very destructive recent disturbance of this horizon was recorded, with over 35% of the total area examined being affected. Few significant conclusions could be drawn from the prehistoric and Romano-British finds recovered from the site, and none of the small number of features excavated could be securely dated. [AIP] |
