Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was carried out by Archaeology South East (ASE) at the Dullingham Motors Site, 12 Brinkley Road, Dullingham, Cambridgeshire (NGR TL 6299 5775) in advance of a proposed residential development. The work was commissioned by Brinkley Developments Ltd. Three trial-trenches were excavated to a cumulative length of 45m. The trenches were positioned where practicable to provide a random sample of the area. Although the trenches showed little sign of disturbance to the natural horizon no archaeological features or finds were encountered during the evaluation. Natural geology comprising light yellowish brown weathered clay with flint gravel and chalk patches was encountered at 79.48m AOD in the northwest of the site (Trench 1) and 80.16m AOD in the east (Trench 3) suggesting a slope in the natural horizon from southeast to northwest. |
