Abstract: |
An archaeological strip, map and sample excavation was undertaken to monitor the groundwork's associated with the development of a lake to the east of the Chellaston Business Park Construction. As the new lake development was taking place on the site of a late glacial lake there was some potential for the location of lake-edge archaeological remains associated with human activity during the late upper Palaeolithic or early Mesolithic periods. Prior to the strip, map and sample excavation, an Archaeological desk based Assessment (George 2005), geophysical survey (Smalley 2010) a trial trench evaluation (Hunt 2011) and test pitting survey (Jarvis 2013) were undertaken. The test pitting located a very few lithic artefacts and a strip, map and sample excavation was requested by the Derbyshire County Council Development Control Archaeologist as advisor to the planning authority. However despite constant monitoring of the study area no flint scatters or archaeological remains were found. The site archive will be deposited with Derbyshire County Council Historic Environment Record. |
