| Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was carried out by trial trenching on the site of a proposed gravel extraction pit and associated haul road. Approximately 5% of the development area was excavated with the principal aim of determining the extent of any surviving archaeological features. The topsoil was removed to the level of the natural subsoil and the trenches were carefully investigated. Archaeological features were identified in trenches 1, 23, 24, 26, 34, 35 and 44. These features were pits, apart from ditches in trenches 35 and 44. The two pits in trench 32 were intercutting; the earliest of which two sherds of medieval pottery, dated to the early 13th century. No other trenches contained archaeological features. [Au] |
