Abstract: |
<summary>Salvage recording was undertaken along the line of a proposed conveyer-belt to be constructed as part of an expansion of Church Farm Quarry. This crossed an area of crop marks, the largest of which proved to be a Roman ditch, probably a field boundary. In addition, one corresponded to the possible entrance of a prehistoric enclosure. 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. A number of other features including ditches, pits, post holes and naturally occurring features were also excavated. These had not shown from the air. Artefactual evidence was limited, and together with the excavated features suggested agricultural boundaries, enclosures and low-level associated activity dating from the Bronze Age onwards. {italon}Au{italoff} {italon}SMR Primary Record Numbers:{italoff} HWCM4503 |
