| Abstract: |
Albion Archaeology undertook the excavation of 4 trial trenches. The area investigated revealed considerable post-medieval disturbance and features associated with the 19th- and 20th-farmyard that previously occupied this part of the development area. These included wall foundations, postholes, yard surfaces, drains and possible robber trenches. None of the trial trenches contained any deposits datable to any period earlier than the late post-medieval/modern period. Flooding and high groundwater accompanied the investigations. This evaluation has shown that this part of the development area does not contain any significant concentrations of archaeological features or deposits. Although considerable areas of the site had been truncated by modern activity, the lack of residual pottery or domestic refuse suggests that the southern part of the development area is unlikely to have been used for any function other than agriculture. |
