Abstract: |
An archaeological trial trench evaluation undertaken partially upon the course, and within a field to the west of The Scots Dike (Scheduled Monument No. 26957) at the eastern edge of Richmond, North Yorkshire. During investigations an undated ditch, and a re-cut posthole and buried soil horizon were investigated that were sealed by the remains of the Scots Dike embankment. Handmade pottery dating from the later prehistoric (700 BC) to the Roman period was recovered from the fill of the posthole and the soil horizon, as was charred plant material. Other features identified included an undated cobble spread and agricultural remains of the 16th to 18th centuries including ridge and furrow cultivation, field boundary ditches and a possible fence line. |
