Abstract: |
An archaeological strip and record works was undertaken ahead of quarrying. The fieldwork identified two late 17th/early 18th century brick updraught kilns, located at the eastern edge of the stripped area. One of the kilns was in a relatively good condition, while the second kiln had been largely robbed. A large post-medieval field boundary, orientated northeast/southwest was also uncovered, which ran along the eastern extent of the proposed extraction area. This boundary had already been previously traced and investigated in other strip and record areas (Phase 1 and 2a). Within the Phase 2b area, this boundary was associated with a second parallel ditch, which together formed a narrow trackway, which may have been associated with the kilns. Within the remainder of the area, no evidence of archaeological activity was identified. [Au(adp)] |
