Abstract: |
In August 2016 Archaeological Solutions (AS) carried out archaeological monitoring and recording at Potters Crouch, St Albans, Hertfordshire (NGR TL 1156 0530). The monitoring was commissioned by UK Power Networks, as a requirement of a St Albans City and District Council during the laying of an underground electricity cable in fields around the village. The site is located within area identified as ASR29 on the Local Plan which encompasses an area of Roman occupation. Cropmarks of pits and linear ditches were recorded to the immediate east and a possible medieval pottery kiln was also recorded in the field to the west. Therefore the site had a potential for Romano-British and medieval archaeology. In the event the monitoring revealed no archaeological features. Two fragments of Roman CBM were recovered from the field south-west of the village, close west of Potters Crouch Farm. |
