Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken on the groundworks pertaining to the construction of a new two story rear extension and a new single storey front extension. The groundworks pertaining to this development which comprised the mechanical excavation of the foundations for the new Front and Rear Extensions along with two soakaways identified a simple deposit sequence which consisted of a modern topsoil horizon, an undated and buried ploughsoil horizon and an underlying natural horizon of cornbrash. This deposit sequence was encountered throughout all of the monitored areas. Along the Nettleham Road frontage to this property, the undated and buried ploughsoil horizon was observed to be deeper and more substantial. This was interpreted as being a hedgerow bank along this frontage. No archaeological activity was identified within this area and there were no finds. It was clear from this archaeological monitoring that the known Roman inhumation and cremation cemetery, which has been known about at this general location since the 18th century did not extend into this area. |
