Abstract: |
A watching brief was maintained on 30-31 May 2018 during the soil strip for a new road to service seven self-build plots. Rig and furrow cultivation ridges were recorded across the trench; some of these were recorded on the aerial photograph. The circular and sub-rectangular cropmarks to the SE are in house plot 4 and it is possible other archaeological features may survive as the aerial photograph did not show all the features found during the watching brief. No other features were identified but three quartzite objects were found in the topsoil, a core with two platforms, core or short end-scraper and a short end-scraper probably dating to the Middle or Late Bronze Age. |
