Description
March 2023. Trial trenching.
Across the proposed development area there is an even spread of pits, ditches, post holes and tree throws which could not be assigned an accurate date, but which display archaeological activity at the site. Some of these features were not identified during the preceding geophysical survey of the site. These features produced metalwork, and animal bone which similarly could not be dated. <1>
