Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by Oakford Archaeology between August and September 2017 during building work at Trebles Cottage, Kingston, Devon. A watching brief was maintained during works associated with the construction of a new dwelling and associated groundworks. The area was reduced to the level of the subsoil before series of foundation trenches, totalling 100m long, 0.95m wide and 1.05m deep, were excavated and monitored. The groundworks exposed natural subsoil (102) consisting of loose shale. This was in turn overlain by a 0.15m thick mid reddish brown silty clay subsoil (101) underneath a 0.35m thick mid-to-dark brown topsoil (100). No deposits, features or dating evidence indicative of archaeological activity was found. |
