Abstract: |
In September and October 2012 Archaeological Solutions (AS) carried out an archaeological monitoring and recording at Maynes Farm, Gorhambury, Hertfordshire (NGR TL 1236 0840). The monitoring was funded by Gorhambury Estates Company and was undertaken in compliance with an archaeological condition attached to planning permission for the installation of new biomass boiler. The site lies just outside of St Albans, c. 3km north-west of the town centre. A prehistoric earthwork known as Devil's Ditch Dyke lies adjacent to Maynes Farm. The site lies to the immediate west and north-west of Roman Verulamium with Watling Street traversing the estate north-west/south-east. It is also situated within the farm complex dating from the medieval period onwards. Therefore the site had a potential for prehistoric, Romano-British, medieval and post-medieval archaeological remains. In the event the monitoring revealed no archaeological features or finds. |
