Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by the British Marine Aggregate Producers Association on behalf of The Crown Estate, CEMEX UK Marine Limited, Hanson Aggregates Marine Limited, Tarmac Marine Dredging Limited and Volker Dredging Limited to conduct an archaeological assessment of the Palaeo-Yare catchment area, East Anglia. The aim of the project was to delineate, where possible, the regional extents and survival of specific sediment units from which a large number of flint artefacts and faunal remains were recovered. The sediment units and associated finds coincide with a region where long standing production licence areas for marine aggregate dredging have permitted extraction for several decades. The aim of the project was to map, primarily using existing industry data, the extents of the key Palaeo-Yare deposit (Unit 3b), and to develop hypotheses about the archaeological potential of the region. Following the initial Technical Report, an Addendum Report was produced for the short-term licence areas. The area of assessment was approximately 24 km x 30 km. |
