Abstract: |
From the 13th to the 17th of March 2017 Oxford Archaeology East undertook an evaluation at land at Stallingborough Interchange, North East Lincolnshire (TA 19581 12842). A total of nine trenches were excavated ranging in size from 5m to 14m in length and 1.80m wide. All of the trenches bar Trenches 6 and 9 contained archaeological finds and features. Trenches 1 to 5 were located over the main area of geophysical anomalies and upon excavation were found to contain a series of large ditches, stone walls, post-holes and a possible oven or kiln, all dating to the Roman period. geophysical anomalies, and contained ditches and post-holes. An unabraded assemblage of pottery was recovered from ditch 25 in Trench 7, dated to the 2nd to 3rd centuries AD. A single wall tile (of high status) was recovered from ditch 41 in Trench 8. The environmental evidence from these two trenches recovered an exceptional quantity of charred spelt and emmer wheat indicative of malting having taken place on site, probably within the immediate vicinity of the trench. A large quantity of ceramic building material was identified within the area surrounding Trench 7 and may indicate the presence of another structure, perhaps related to the malting process. |
