Abstract: |
An archaeological trench evaluation was carried out in advance on land at Pinhoe Quarry. A desk-based assessment of the site identified limited potential for prehistoric and Romano-British remains, but a possibility that medieval and post-medieval deposits might be present. A geophysical survey carried out across the site identified numerous linear and discrete pit-like anomalies. The evaluation comprised the excavation of eight trenches positioned across the geophysical anomalies and generally throughout the site to provide a sampled coverage. Only limited evidence for archaeological activity was identified, comprising a plough scar and a post-medieval drainage/boundary ditch within Area 1 and two post-medieval drainage ditches with associated land drains within Area 2. Other features recorded include a probable tree throw and natural hollow. |
