Abstract:
In June 2015 Archaeological Research Services Ltd. (ARS Ltd.) undertook archaeological monitoring of groundworks relating to Site 1 of the redevelopment of land and buildings to install a new business park for AIM Aviation Ltd. on the same site of the existing facility. The specification required that a watching brief should be carried out to observe any ground works taking place for the proposed development in order to identify any potential archaeological remains. This involved monitoring the stripping of sediment down to the natural sand and gravel. With the exception of the one linear ditch there was an absence of archaeological features in the stripped areas. While the paucity of features in the stripped areas does not preclude the chance of archaeological remains being uncovered in other parts of the site, the potential for survival is diminished by the presence of buildings and, probably, more extensive service intrusions in the environs of the structures. In discussion with the local authority archaeologist the stripped areas were considered sufficient to inform upon the likelihood of survival of further archaeological remains across the site. The watching brief was terminated at this point.
