Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at Buckton Fields in August 2006. Twenty four 50m trenches were excavated across the eastern part of the development area. The evaluation identified a number of natural geological features/variations within field 2. A Mesolithic flint flake was found at the interface between the subsoil and one of the natural striations. The features all corresponded with a series of anomalies identified from geophysical survey and aerial photography. It was also successful in recovering the remnants of the surviving anti-aircraft battery structures dating from World War II, confirmed by the presence of two linear ditches. No other archaeological features were present. [Au(adp)] |
