Abstract:
A series of foundation footings were excavated on the immediate south of the building of 29 Heather Road which covered an area measuring 5.50m by 6m. The width of the footing trenches were 0.70m and were excavated down to a maximum depth of 0.78m. Where archaeological horizons were encountered they were cleaned by hand and excavated appropriately. Standard John Moore Heritage Services techniques were employed throughout, involving the completion of a written record for each deposit encountered, with scale plans and section drawings compiled where appropriate. A photographic record was also produced. The resultant spoil from the works was visually scanned, especially for finds relating to the prehistoric, Roman and Anglo-Saxon periods. The watching brief aimed to identify the presence or absence of significant archaeological remains, with a particular focus on the prehistoric, Roman and AngloSaxon periods. However, over the course of groundworks excavations, a series of modern drainage pipes as well as a modern concrete footing pad were observed within the excavated area. No archaeological features or artefacts relating to any period were uncovered.
