Abstract:
Geoarchaelogical borehole and window sample pit survey across the site. The basal deposits recorded consisted of sandy gravel. Across the site the level of the gravels remained at a fairly constant level: between 3.5 to 4m OD. Above the gravels were sandy clays. The site probably remained as dry land into the historic period, after which time alluvial clays started to accumulate across the site, with the area developing into a grass or hay meadow. Towards the northern edge of the site deposits suggest that a later channel cuts down through the older Pleistocene gravels. The survey suggested that archaeological features could be expected to survive beneath the upper alluvial clay.
