Abstract: |
The land off Canal Road is due to be developed into residential properties by Mr M. Oseman. The development works affect a Scheduled Ancient Monument so this investigation was carried out in response to a request from English Heritage for more information on the site in order to determine an SMC application. To obtain the required information a ground investigation for engineering had to be undertaken. To enable the ground investigations English Heritage issued a Class 7 consent (Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979, Class consent amendment). The aim was to establish the upper and lower levels of archaeology across the site. The investigation revealed that there was no archaeology in the top 0.50m and this was confirmed by the borehole cores. The first true archaeological horizon is present at approximately 0.80m below the surface. The depth of the archaeology is approximately 2.00m across the site. |
