Abstract: |
Between the 9th-10th May 2013 the CAU undertook an archaeological trench evaluation within the grounds of Norman Hall, Mill Road, Ickleton. This consisted of 13m of trenching dug across the middle of the proposed development area (PDA) at TL 49607 43956. Up to 1.2m of soil overlay the natural gravel, and within this sequence was found a buried soil containing moderate amounts of worked flint ranging from the Mesolithic/Early Neolithic to the Middle Bronze Age/ Iron Age plus a small amount of Iron Age and Medieval pottery. No prehistoric features were identified, though some flint-filled tree-throws were located beneath the buried soil. However, at the north end of the main trench a NE-SW aligned Postmedieval? Boundary ditch was discovered, the base of which truncated an earlier pit/ tree-throw containing Roman pottery. |
