Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Carter Lauren Construction Limited (the Client) through their project designers, Axiom Architects to undertake an archaeological trial trench evaluation at the site of a proposed new Marstons public house in Huntworth, North Petherton, Somerset.Only two potential archaeological features were observed within the trial trenches. In Trench 6 a north-west to south east aligned field boundary ditch of probable post-medieval date was recorded. A single fragment of Romano-British brick found within the fill of the ditch is most probably intrusive. In Trench 7 a north-west to south east aligned gully or ditch was observed that could not be excavated due to excessive water ingress, although it is possible that the feature is a field drain. The only other finds recovered during the evaluation comprised a single sherd of 11th to 12th century medieval coarseware from the topsoil in Trench 5 and modern finds from the underlying made ground. No other finds were recovered from the remaining trenches No archaeological features or finds relating to the Late Prehistoric settlement identified in excavations at the Regional Rural Business Centre immediately to the north-east of the Site were identified. This indicates that the limits of this settlement do not extend into the site. |
