| Abstract: |
The evaluation was undertaken along the route of the proposed track, the methodology employed was continuous archaeological sample excavation along the whole of the proposed route. The results produced few significant archaeological feature, although a prehistoric post-pipe structure was recorded and an undated hearth with burnt flint was preserved within colluvial deposits. A complex and extensive sequence of colluvial deposits extended the length of the dry valley. A few strata within the colluvial sequence were associated with diagnostic material establishing the minimum period of deposition from the Neolithic to the Romano-British periods. Preserved within the colluvial deposits were buried soils and a lynchet dating to the Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age. [AIP] |
