Abstract: |
An archaeological trench evaluation on land north of Field View, rear of 46-52, High Street, Honiton, Devon (centred on ST 1648 0068) was undertaken by AC archaeology during November 2013. The evaluation comprised the machine-excavation of two trenches totalling 46m in length, with each trench 1.40m wide. Two boundary ditches, conforming to the historical pattern of properties, and a pit, all of probable post-medieval date were uncovered. Two distinctive horticultural soils (hortisols) were found dating from the 18th century onwards. Modern activity on the site included the presence of a demolished World War II air raid shelter of Anderson type. |
