Abstract: |
The aim of the watching brief was to establish the extent of made ground deposits on the site and to determine if any of the saltern mounds previously documented had survived beneath the overburden. Six test pits were excavated, and in all the cases the natural was encountered under a layer of made ground that varied between 1m and 4m in depth. The lack of any subsoil horizon indicates that the site had been stripped down to the natural geology prior to the imported material being deposited. No traces of the salterns were observed. |
