Abstract: |
On the 14th and 15th May 2007 an archaeological watching brief, on behalf of RPS, was undertaken in association with a programme of geo-technical investigations. The archaeological investigations involved the observation and recording of 9 machine excavated geo-technical test pits measuring 3m by 0.6m using a JCB 3CX. The archaeological investigations were commissioned to assess whether former development on the site had disturbed any potential archaeological deposits. Of the nine test pits recorded, the natural ground was encountered in six and made ground was seen to the full depth of the other three. The results suggest that the area has suffered considerable truncation during the 20th century. Although the presence of natural ground means that it is possible that archaeological remains are present on the site, it is more likely that any such remains that were present have been removed during this episode of truncation.Of the deposits observed, none were deemed to possess any significant archaeological value. |
