Abstract:
A total of seven 30m by 1.8m trenches and six test-pits 2.5m by 2.5m, excavated within the confines of six of the trenches, were excavated across the study area. No archaeological features were revealed during the course of the project, although prehistoric worked flints were recovered from possible brickearth layers in Trenches/Test-pits 1, 3 and 4. Natural deposits and intact subsoils were present in all trenches. A total of four struck flints were present in Trenches/Test-pits 1, 3 and 4, all deriving from the possible brickearth layers. These may date to the Mesolithic or early Neolithic period but were unlikely to have been recovered from contemporary deposits. Possible brickearth deposits were present in Trenches/Test-pits 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6. There was no clear evidence for the presence of dolines within the investigated areas. The Test-pits all revealed probable glacial movement of deposits underlying the possible brickearth.
