Abstract: |
The Heritage Network was commissioned by the developer to undertake the monitoring of the groundworks associated with the construction of 3 concrete rafts for temporary buildings and a deep pit for a septic tank at land NW of Lug Fen Droveway, Lode, Cambridgeshire. The study area lies in the fenland 3.3km NNW of Lode, centred at TL 5210 6693 and just above Ordnance datum. It is located within a documented archaeological landscape, with evidence dating from the Mesolithic period in the immediate vicinity. The fieldwork consisted of monitoring of the ground reduction for the concrete rafts and the excavation of the pit for the septic tank. It revealed a layer of peat, 0.50m deep, over sand. No archaeological features, deposits or artefacts were encountered, and no unstratified artefacts recovered. |
