Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by SKANSKA PROJECTS South West to undertake an archaeological watching brief at Beer Wall, Othery, Somerset, centred on National Grid Reference (NGR) ST 39293 31515. The watching brief was undertaken during works associated with a development project designed to improve the conveyance of water beneath the A372 by the construction of culverts beneath the road and lowering of the ground. The watching briefs took place intermittently between the 11 July and 27 September 2016. The watching brief monitored the excavation of two large channels designed to control the flow of water from the river, and a separate service trench. Once it had been determined that any excavation would not go deep enough to clear the levels of peat, it was decided that the works would be monitored on an intermittent basis, with an archaeologist being present on site for one day per week. No archaeological features or deposits were recorded during the course of the works. |
