Description

85 evaluation trenches were excavated using a tracked 360° mechanical excavator fitted with a 2.1m wide ditching bucket. The trenches were generally 30m in length, and were distributed to achieve a random sample of the site. Trench 80 was extended by approximately 6m at its East end, to trace the extent of a quarry pit.
