Abstract: |
Archaeological monitoring and recording was undertaken by AC archaeology between October and June 2018 on land to the south of the A361 near Tiverton (SS 98503 13644). The site lay adjacent to scheduled monument 1019058, a Neolithic long barrow. Monitored works included the removal of a hedgebank and the excavation of 36 postholes for the construction of an acoustic fence. This formed a component to a wider new road junction development that had principally exposed a small number of Late Neolithic pits. The work exposed further evidence for Late Neolithic activity (3000-2500 BC). This consisted of a possible pit containing a quantity of Grooved Ware pottery. Further mitigation involved a condition report of the long barrow and geophysical and topographical survey of a nearby bowl barrow. |
