Abstract: |
A watching brief conducted on 8 trenches between the 28th September and 24th October 2017 undertaken to replace the existing main with a new PE network. Trenches 1 to 7 measured between 0.60m and 2.65m in length (N-S) x 0.60-0.80m in width x 0.90 - 1.25m in depth. Trench 8m located at the southern end of Watermill Way, measured 22m in length x 0.35-0.40m in width x 0.90-1.20m in depth. The stratigraphy recorded across all eight trenches was broadly similar, comprising the existing road surface (1) overlying a layer or rubble and hardcore (2) and (5), black gravels (3) orange-brown gravels (4) and in the case of Trench 8, a band of dark grey-black wet silty clay (6). No archaeological finds or features were recorded. |
