Description

Original HER entry merged with NRHE data import: The excavation of a 105m long trench for an electricity cable was monitored by a CAT employee between the 14th and 16th of December 2010. The northernmost 15m of the trench had been excavated and backfilled prior to the first visit. The cable trench was excavated using a mechanical excavator equipped with a 300mm wide toothless bucket. The trench was along the edge of a road constructed of concrete overlain with tarmac. Monitoring of development groundworks recorded former farm walls of post-medieval to modern date.
