Abstract: |
The area immediately to the north of the current site was subject to archaeological trial trenching and monitoring in 2006; one trench lay partially within the current development area and contained an intact buried prehistoric soil, associated artefacts and an Iron Age hearth (Good 2006). Further evaluation of the current site in 2014 revealed a buried prehistoric soil horizon cut by occupation features, including postholes and a ditch (Heard 2014; SHER GSE088). Excavations c. 125m to the south recorded a late Bronze Age/ early Iron Age enclosure, a roundhouse and contemporary activity (Heard 2010; SHER CAC035). Early Bronze Age artefacts of national significance were also encountered in this area. In the event, the monitoring of groundworks by AS encountered a buried soil (L1003), thought to correspond with the previously identified prehistoric horizon in the south-western corner of the site. Micromorphological analysis of L1003 confirmed the presence of two buried soils, each with associated subsoils and anthropogenic material. No archaeological features or finds were present. |
