Abstract: |
A watching brief associated with the digging of a pond on land behind the council houses, Greatford, Lincolnshire as previous work had revealed two undated ditches and a number of pits, one of which contained Saxon pottery of probable 5th to 6th century date. The stripping of the area revealed a stratigraphic relationship between the two ditches and a sharp right angle bend in one suggesting the possibility that this may be an enclosure ditch of Romano-British date. However, no dateable material was recovered from either ditch and there is a possibility that they may yet relate to Saxon activity revealed during the (2005) investigation. |
