Abstract: |
An archaeological walkover survey of the proposed development area, located in the field to the south-east of the junction of Mawson Green Lane and Marsh Hill Lane, was undertaken on the 7th September 2006. The field is rectangular in shape, and is used for rough pasture, with areas of nettles and thicker vegetation, and is bounded on all sides by hedge lines containing mature oak trees. It is situated within an area of flat, low-lying land located at approximately 4m above OD. This is cut across by numerous artificial drainage channels, such as the Sykehouse Main Drain and the Mawson Green Lane Drain which run along the north and west sides of the site respectively. The field pattern surrounding the study area is typical of late 18th or early 19th century drainage and enclosure, which can be seen throughout the Humberhead Levels. The proposed development area is crossed west to east by a series of low ridges, about 8m wide, of a straight alignment and constrained within the field boundaries; these appear to be the lines of field drains. There are no further archaeological features visible on the surface within the proposed development area. |
