Abstract: |
The report describes the results of a program of archaeological evaluation at St. Mary's Marina, Rufford, Lancashire. The project was undertaken in advance of a planning application for a new marina. A total of five trial trenches were excavated, each measuring 2 x 20 m. Little evidence was found for in situ archaeological deposits, most features being 19th and 20th century land drains. Two north-south aligned ditches were probably 19th century field boundaries, though these could not be related to features shown on 19th century maps. Most finds were relatively modern, though a fragment of medieval pottery and a fragment of Early Post-Medieval Coarseware were present. However, these were both found in later deposits and are unlikely to relate directly to settlement. |
