Description
Evaluation trenching at the site of three proposed livestock buildings did not reveal any archaeological features or finds. The site lies at c5m OD on the western, Fen, side of the cut-off channel and the trenching revealed evidence for the presence of a relatively deep hollow at the site which had clearly been wet in the past as the lower subsoil layer comprised a peaty sand though more recent desiccation processes has caused degradation of the peaty element within this deposit.
