Abstract: |
A watching brief was carried out during the excavation of six test-pits by the Environment Agency, at a site which lay within an area rich in prehistoric and Saxon remains. The natural gravel core of Penton Hook Island was seen in all of the test-pits, and a considerable dump of material derived from dredging operations was noted. A shaped wooden stake was recovered from one test-pit, although it was thought probable that this had been washed in from the river, as no further stakes nor any settings were seen. Glass, pottery and a clay pipe fragment of a 19th-20th century date were recovered from dredging material within one pit. A clay brick was also found. [AIP] |
