| Abstract: |
A controlled archaeological watching brief was undertaken during ground works associated with test-pit excavations. These excavations were located on the north side of the current A63 from Melton Bottom on the west, to Melton Hill Lodge on the east. This area included South Lawn, an area previously established in 1994 to be the site of an Iron Age and Romano-British 'ladder' settlement site, considered to be of regional or county importance. A medieval timber building was also found. Observation of the machine excavation of a total of 17 trial pits and trial trenches failed to reveal any archaeological features, though a number of medieval and post-mediaeval finds were recovered from the topsoil. No Iron Age or Romano-British finds were recorded. [Au(abr)] |
