Abstract: |
A geophysical survey undertaken in August 2016 identified anomalies thought to relate to agricultural practise, modern material and geological/pedological variations. The archaeological evaluation aimed to identify the archaeological potential of the site within the housing development area. Five machine-excavated trenches (Trenches 1-5), each measuring c. 10m x 1.5m, were investigated. Natural geological material, of varying compositions of sands and clays was exposed in all trenches. This was in turn overlain by sub-soil. One archaeological feature was recorded in Trench 5. This comprised a ditch of probable medieval date. A single sherd of pottery dating from the medieval period was recovered from the ditch. The form and infill of the feature indicates that it is likely to be a medieval boundary ditch associated with agricultural use of the land. Topsoil formed the current ground surface. The evaluation established that archaeological remains of low significance were situated in the area proposed for housing development. |
