Abstract: |
In late January 2007 Archaeological Services and Consultancy undertook an archaeological evaluation at Linacre College, Oxford. The site lies within the floodplain of the river Cherwell, on alluvium about 1m thick overlying fluvio-glacial gravels. The only sign of human intervention on the site was the presence an alluvium filled ditch-like feature on the edge of a dark organic layer. This was located in two of the trenches but was inexplicably missing from a middle trench, suggesting its irregularity was more due to natural factors than human agency. From the fill of one 'ditch segment' came an oyster shell and a small fragment of possible roof tile. No other features or artefacts were noted from the site. |
