Abstract: |
Archaeological monitoring was undertaken during the construction of a new cattle shed at Caston Church Farm. Trenches dug for stanchion bases, water and electricity supplies and soakaways were observed and recorded. Natural sand was exposed in many of the trenches overlaid by varying depths of subsoil and topsoil. Close to existing farm buildings the service trenches ran across areas partly disturbed by previous drainage schemes. The area within the new shed was stripped of some of its topsoil in order to provide a level floor but the depth of the removal was slight - only some slightly 'subsoily' sandy silt was patchily exposed in some places. Nothing of archaeological interest was seen and no finds of interest were made. |
