Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was carried out during groundworks associated with the construction of a millstream diversion channel on land to the north of Mill Lane, Creech St. Michael, Somerset. There was a possibility that buried features associated with an early mill might have been present and where there is potential for the survival of organic and other palaeoenvironmental remains sealed by and within flood deposits adjacent to the River Tone. Undated alluvial layers were present in the lower part of the recorded layer sequence, which were overlain by a redeposited clay subsoil onto which was a modern levelling deposit and a partly reinstated bank. No in situ archaeological deposits or features were exposed during groundworks and no palaeoenvironmental deposits were recorded. No pre-modern finds were recovered either from the spoil or from the exposed deposits. |
