Abstract: |
Trial trench evaluation. 11 trenches to the north and south of Biggin Lane, Ramsey were excavated. Large parts of the southern field could not be evaluated due to the unknown location of a medium pressure gas main. A geophysical survey had been undertaken prior to the trenches which had revealed anomalies in the northern field. The trenches revealed middle Iron Age enclosures, and a large Iron Age/Roman boundary ditch in Trenches 2, 5, 6 and 7 in the northern field. A possible undated trackway was revealed in Trench 9. The remaining trenches were blank. Trenches 15 and 16 in the southern field contained layers of airfield debris and demolition rubble, mixed with disused services. |
