Abstract: |
This report describes the results of an eleven-trench archaeological evaluation carried out by Pre-Construct Archaeology on land at the Former Grampian Country Foods Site, St Edmund's Drive, Elmswell, (NGR TL 9885 6418) on the 1st December 2014 to 3rd December 2014. The archaeological work was commissioned by CgMs Consulting in response to a planning condition attached to the forthcoming development. The aim of the work was to characterise the archaeological potential of the site. The evaluation identified three ditches of possible Roman date. This could well be suggestive of occupation in the vicinity. Two of these were sealed by a layer of crushed brick rubble, which was associated with a pathway. The other ditch was sealed by a layer of built up landscaping soil. The results of the fieldwork enhance understanding of the Roman development of this part of Elmswell and can be characterised as being of local significance. |
