Abstract: |
An evaluation was carried out at the proposed site of a residential development. Prior to the evaluation, a watching brief was conducted during the grubbing-out of previous foundations. Archaeological investigations in the surrounding area had recorded a prehistoric ditch and other possible prehistoric features, Iron Age and Roman features, and a small amount of medieval evidence. During the watching brief, the presence of a disturbed brickearth subsoil was identified. The evaluation revealed a number of features, including two undated ditches, modern post-holes or stake-holes and a modern pit. Within one trench, two possible prehistoric features, two of medieval date and three which could not be dated were recorded. Artefacts included a single sherd of Roman pottery, one Late Saxon sherd, and further pottery of prehistoric, medieval and post-medieval date. Three clay pipe fragments and a number of burnt flints were also found. [AIP] |
