Abstract: |
An archaeological trial trench evaluation and subsequent targeted excavation were carried out in advance of residential development by AC archaeology in November and December 2016 on land off Woodland Road, Ivybridge, Devon. The development area occupied approximately three hectares of agricultural land on the western edge of Ivybridge. The trenches were positioned to target anomalies interpreted from a previous geophysical survey. Archaeological features were present in three of the trenches, with these consisting of two ditches, a gully, a pit and a tree throw. These features were mainly undated and are either natural in origin or related to agricultural use of the site, with only a small pit indicating possible small-scale non-agricultural use. There was a small assemblage of finds recovered comprising one sherd of medieval pottery, three sherds of post-medieval pottery and some pieces of burnt clay. |
