Abstract: |
Between October 2008 and May 2009 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) conducted archaeological monitoring and recording on land adjacent to the Yew Tree public house, Walkern, Hertfordshire. The monitoring and recording was undertaken as part of a planning requirement prior to proposals to construct 20 dwellings, and it followed archaeological evaluation of the site in 2007. The monitoring and recording was conducted during the groundworks for individual plots (A-H), and the access road. Three archaeological features were revealed. The earliest was a large oval pit, F2003, located in Plot G; this dated to the mid to late 1st century AD. Given the lack of prehistoric remains within the area this late Iron Age to early Roman feature is therefore relatively significant. The two other features were large pits within Plot A. The earlier of these, F2015, was a possible cesspit and contained a sherd of modern pottery. |
