Abstract: |
<summary>An evaluation was undertaken at Church Farm East, Grimley, in advance of gravel-quarrying on an area of crop marks. These crop marks form part of an extensive series of sites which from aerial photographs, excavation and evaluation are known to include sites of national importance (HWCM4507 / County Monument No Here & Worc 209, and HWCM2584 / County Monument No Here & Worc 243). Two parallel ditches had provisionally been interpreted as a road running northwards from the Roman fortlet at Grimley. The evaluation revealed two linear features interpreted as field boundaries. No trace was found of the two parallel linear crop marks indicated on the aerial photographs, although the excavated features correlated well with a plotted crop mark towards the west of the site. Flint artefacts recovered from the features suggested that they were late Neolithic in origin. Fieldwalking in the immediate area produced flints of the Neolithic and early Bronze Age. {italon}Au(adp){italoff} {italon}SMR Primary Record Numbers:{italoff} HWCM4535 |
