Abstract: |
This report was commissioned by AC Archaeology Ltd on behalf of Stutchbury Associates Ltd. It is part of a programme of archaeological works undertaken in preparation for a planning application for a proposed residential development at the above site. Eighteen magnetic anomaly groups were mapped as possibly representing archaeological deposits or features. One group represents what is likely to be a double-ditched, rectangular enclosure that extends beyond the south-eastern corner of the site. One group represents a former field boundary mapped in 1840 and removed prior to 1885. Five groups may represent former field boundaries also mapped in 1840 and removed prior to 1885 and/or agricultural lynchets or leats. It may be that the mapped field boundaries followed pre-existing lynchets or leats. A further three groups are most likely to represent former agricultural lynchets or leats. The remaining anomaly groups characterised as representing potential archaeological deposits or features are relatively dispersed and form no clear pattern. They are most likely to represent fragments of linear deposits such as ditches. Three of these may reflect archaeological deposits or field drains. |
