Abstract: |
Groundworks consisted of the excavation of two further ponds in the Piddington Training Area. These ponds were excavated to the natural horizon. Metal detecting was conducted throughout the groundworks due to the potential for metal finds within the area. The archaeological monitoring revealed two archaeological features, located within the Pond 8 area, with Pond 9 being sterile of archaeological features and finds. The features that were identified during excavations contained no dating evidence. A small number of finds were recovered during excavations. The pottery was dated to the early/middle Iron Age and ceramic building material was dated to the late post-medieval period, all likely to be residual finds from archaeological activity in the vicinity. |
