Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation in two phases was undertaken after an initial watching brief identified a series of cut features. A total of twenty-five 30m by 2m archaeological evaluation trenches were proposed across the entire area of the site in order to clarify the nature of the features encountered in the watching brief, to assess the rest of the site for archaeological potential and to understand how the planned ground works will affect archaeological remains. Both phases of evaluation established the presence of a natural horizon comprised of orange clays with gravels cut by natural and deliberate cut features. A significant number of the deliberate cut features were undeterminable in both character and date, those dateable dated to the Iron Age and Post-Mediaeval Period Natural fell from a height of 129.06m OD at the northern end of the site to 126.47m OD at the southern end of the site. |
