Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was carried out by AC archaeology in March 2015 at Drumbridge Roundabout, Newton Road, Bovey Tracey, Devon. The work was undertaken during the construction of a new drainage channel prior to road widening. The groundworks provided an informal section through pit or channel features cutting the natural clay geology. These features are interpreted as former tin workings which form part of an extensive area of tin works known to have operated in the Bovey Heathfield area in the late medieval and post-medieval periods. These workings are thought to have been largely abandoned in the 17th century. |
