Abstract: |
Past archaeological work before the creation of a quarry north of Maxey Cut produced evidence for an extensive prehistoric landscape, and its continuation was anticipated to the south, where it was proposed to extend the quarry. A total of 3000m of trenches failed to find evidence for such extensive utilisation of this new area. Elements of early prehistoric activity such as small pits and possible ring gullies were found along with the remains of Iron Age and Romano-British field systems. [Au(adp)] |
