Abstract: |
The archaeological work involved excavating three trial trenches within the foot pint of the proposed development avoiding any area of known post-medieval and modern disturbance. The most significant archaeological remains identified were located within the south and eastern part of the site, and include three potentially Iron Age ditches and a Saxon pit. The low density of affectual remains and analysis of soil samples suggests the ditches were possibly for water management situated with a landscape that was originally open, damp grassland with in-frequent deposits of detritus from a settlement situated some distance away. Other archaeological features recognised on site include a buried subsoil layer and a post-medieval pit. A series of modern demolition and levelling deposits were observed across the whole site although the modern disturbance was more intense within the southwestern portion of the site. |
