Abstract: |
The watching brief was undertaken on the extraction of deposits from a number of small trial pits, trial holes and boreholes excavated in advance of a new water main. It was suggested the test pits one, two and three represented one side of a wide gentle floodplain. The two boreholes indicated that they might have been part of, or close to the main palaeochannel. The sediments tended to reflect this environment with interclated clays and rapidly accumulated organic alluvium replacing floodplain peats. This was followed by a sequence that may have suggested the flood plain was beginning to rise again, away from the main channel, but again the shallow sequence, meant that this was only an estimation. No organic or inorganic archaeology was observed during this exercise. [Au(adp)] |
