Abstract: |
The archaeological monitoring and recording was maintained on the groundworks for a new residential development.. The monitored groundworks for this development which consisted of the mechanical excavation of the foundations for three house plots along with a detached garage and simultaneous associated mechanical ground reduction were the subject of continual archaeological monitoring and recording. The archaeological monitoring did not identify any archaeological activity on this site and there were no finds. The findings comprised a simple deposit sequence which consisted of a modern topsoil horizon, an undated buried soil or ploughsoil horizon and an underlying natural horizon. This deposit sequence was recorded within a total of seven representative sections, which were widely distributed across the development site. During the groundworks on House Plot 4, the site of a relict pond, which was featured on the First Edition O.S. map of 1886, was filled in with the spoil from these groundworks. It was intended that the excavation of the foundations for House Plot 3, would take place over the site of this backfilled relict pond, which would in turn comprise most of this new build area. Consequently, it was decided not to monitor the groundworks for House Plot 3. |
