Abstract:
In September 2017 Archaeological Solutions (AS) carried out an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land south of Whiteditch Lane, Newport, Essex CB11 3UD (NGR TL 51722 34663; Figs. 1 - 2. Trial trenches 1 - 6 but not Trenches 7 and 8 contained archaeological features. The latter trenches (7 and 8) were located at the eastern end of the site. The features were most numerous towards the western end of the site: Trench 1 (8); 2 (7); 3 (1); 4 (5); 5 (1) and 6 (1). The features comprised pits and ditches, and some of the pits (F2037 and F2043 (Trench 1) and F2029 (Trench 6) may represent quarry pits or intercutting pits. The earliest finds were sherds of early Iron Age pottery from features in Trenches 2 (F2020), 4 (F2045), 5 (F2041) and 6 (F2029). The pottery survived as crumbs and is abraded. The best preserved is that from Pit F2029 (Trench 6) which comprises the remains of an early Iron Age bowl, potentially dating to the 8th to 6th centuries BC. Animal bone was found in association with the pottery. Ditch F2020 (Trench 2) and Pit F2029 (Trench 6) also contained CBM suggesting that the pottery is residual. The archaeology is directly comparable to that recorded within Area A of the adjacent excavation undertaken in 2016 (Mola, 2016; EHER 48597). Here 13 intercutting pits, a post hole and a ditch were recorded. The features contained late Bronze Age / early Iron Age pottery, animal bone and flint knapping debris Medieval (mid 13th - mid 15th century) pottery was present within Pit F2023 (Trench 1).
