Abstract: |
A watching brief was undertaken for CIET (UK) Ltd in advance of replacement work on two electricity poles within the area of the scheduled monument. Trench 1 (NX 96005 75202) was excavated through recent backfill deposits and was archaeologically sterile. In Trench 2 (NX 95985 75121) a natural boulder clay surface, sealed by plough zone and modern backfill deposits, was recorded at a depth of c.0.35m; no archaeological deposits were observed. |
