Abstract: |
PCAS Archaeology Ltd. was commissioned by Lindum Homes to carry out a scheme of archaeological monitoring and recording on development on land off Wesley Way, Horncastle, Lincolnshire. A desk based assessment identified no known archaeological monuments lying within the development site, but did highlight that the site lies on the eastern side of the Romano-British settlement of Banovallum, and that Iron Age and Roman remains have been found nearby, notably a large Iron Age - Roman enclosure to the south, and a second enclosure of comparable date partially exposed during archaeological monitoring on the adjacent Wesley Way development. In addition, an archaeological evaluation undertaken on site confirmed the presence of dispersed archaeological remains that would be impacted by the development proposals. Much of the site proved to be archaeologically negative with only four archaeological features having been identified during the scheme of monitoring. Two of these proved to be modern in date, whilst two remain undated |
