| Abstract: |
An evaluation investigated the southern extent of a dry valley at the foot of the North Downs escarpment. Archaeological features were mainly concentrated along the western slope of the dry valley. They comprised six pits, a human cremation and two ditches. The ditches produced pottery of Late Bronze or Early Iron Age date. The cremation within a pit produced a flat-topped bone pin, of Iron Age or Roman date. None of the other pits produced dating evidence, however, two contained fragments of broken sarsen, suggesting that the pits may have been the result of removing sarsen boulders. Medieval finds and three recent field boundary ditches were also discovered. The evaluation formed part of the investigations along the route of the Channel Tunnel Rail Link. [Au(abr)] |
