Abstract: |
Results of a geophysical survey and archaeological evaluation carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) on land off Alswear Old Road, South Molton in Devon, as part of the pre-planning requirements for a proposed rugby pitch. The four evaluation trenches targeted a series of geophysical anomalies identified in an earlier survey, including the northern edge of a small sub-rectangular enclosure previously noted on aerial photographs. One trench caught the eastern edge of an undated penannular gully, indicating the present of a Prehistoric or Romano-British settlement on at site. A small number of other features were identified. The results indicate this gently-sloping south-facing site formed part of a wider pattern of Prehistoric or Romano-British activity. |
