Abstract: |
Archaeological monitoring and recording was undertaken by AC archaeology during development on land at Pear Tree Cottage, Chardstock, Devon (ST 31020 04375). The monitoring exposed some limited evidence for prehistoric and medieval activity, with this represented by a small number of features and deposits comprising a ditch, a pit and a buried soil. A shallow pit contained worked flint and a Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age (c.3000- 2000BC) date is suggested for this feature. The ditch contained medieval pottery and animal bone as did a buried soil indicating some activity of this date on the site. The second pit was undated. A small assemblage of finds consisted of worked flint, medieval and post-medieval pottery, glass, animal bone, clay tobacco pipe and coal. |
