Abstract: |
The trenching plan comprised a 4% sample of the Site as part of a staged programme of archaeological investigation and was excavated using a mechanical excavator fitted with a toothless ditching bucket under continuous archaeological monitoring. The archaeological evaluation fulfilled the aims and objectives set out in the WSI. The results confirmed the anticipated archaeological potential of the site, with evidence of past human activity apparently limited to the likely levelling of garden plots associated with the construction of the present residential structures, and modern water management of the properties in the form of drainage ditches. With reference to the regional research framework none of these features are considered archaeologically significant. |
