Abstract: |
Archaeological monitoring was undertaken on the Crierswood to Witham Pipeline during September 2008. Monitoring was focused on the section west of Hale''s Farm which had been identified as an area of archaeological significance during a prior desk-based assessment (Heppell 2008) due to the presence of a concentration of cropmarks (EHER 8870). Six archaeological features were observed in the sides of the pipe trench. All were undated apart from a probable post-medieval pond in the section of trench nearest to Hale''s Farm. Two undated parallel ditches were recorded that might be the southerly continuation of a trackway . In the area closest to the cropmark concentration, two pits containing burnt material were recorded. One showed evidence of in situ burning and the other contained baked clay. A large feature located in the centre of the route may have been a large pit or pond. |
