Abstract:
An archaeological trench evaluation on land off Barnards Hill Lane, Seaton, Devon, was undertaken by AC archaeology during September 2017. The evaluation consisted of the machine-excavation of eight trenches totalling 150m in length and each 1.6m wide. These were positioned to target a small number of anomalies identified by a previous geophysical survey, as well as to provide sample coverage of the site. Three of the trenches contained negative results. In the remainder several linear features relate to a historic agricultural landscape of ditches for field boundaries and drainage. The small number of finds from these features indicates that they are probably located at relatively some distance from any contemporary settlement sites. A small assemblage of prehistoric worked flint, some from buried colluvial deposits, indicates activity in the area during the Late Neolithic or Bronze Age periods, but no in situ features of this date were identified. One sherd of later prehistoric pottery and one sherd of Roman pottery recovered from overlying deposits is consistent with known activity of this date within the general area. Other finds recovered comprise a small collection of pottery, tile and glass, all of post-medieval date. 1.
