Abstract: |
The evaluation comprised four test pits positioned across the southern area of the site and the archaeological monitoring of ground works and obstruction removal. The aim of the project was to assess the presence or absence of archaeological remains within the entire stratigraphic sequence to natural deposits. Natural gravel was seen in all four trenches at a height of between 6.15m OD in the south and 5.66m OD in the north. A peat layer, potentially dating to the prehistoric period was seen in Trench 3 and during the monitored works, which was capped by a layer of alluvium which was seen across Trenches 1, 3 and 4. To the south of the site evidence of the mill leat was seen in the form of land ties within Trench 1, whilst an accumulated deposit formed in the base of the leat was seen in Trench 1 and 2. Across the entire site were several layers of 20th and 21st century made ground relating to the industrial use of the land. |
