Abstract: |
A watching brief was maintained on the course of the by-pass. Several undated features were recorded including pits, ditches and undated dump deposits. Three Iron Age pits and a elongated pit or ditch terminuses were identified close to a known Iron Age enclosure. A Roman ditch was identified and Roman finds were recovered from along the route. A medieval fish weir was identified and several timbers dating to between 1000 and 1250 AD were recovered. A 13th century oak tree was recovered from an extinct channel. Ridge and furrow was also recorded along with post-medieval ditches and gullies. [Au(abr)] |
