Abstract: |
Border Archaeology Ltd (BA) was instructed by South East Water to carry out an Archaeological Observation of groundworks associated with a pipeline renewal at Cookham Dean Reservoir between November 8th and November 15th 2016. Prior to the main excavation topsoil removal was undertaken by machine to create a 10m-wide easement extending east over a distance of approximately 100m from the Reservoir outlet to the connection point at on Spring Lane. The main trench was 0.60m wide and was excavated to a depth of 1.20m. No features or deposits of archaeological significance were revealed during the course of the groundworks, but three worked flints were recovered from the topsoil. Whilst undiagnostic, it is suggestive of prehistoric activity within the immediate area. |
