Abstract: |
An independent grid was established across the proposed development area by means of measured survey. Transects 2m wide ran north-west by south-east across the proposed development area and each was identified by a letter (A-T). The grid was tied into the OS national grid.
Metal detecting sweeps were carried out along the transects using a Minelab X-Terra 705 metal detector ensuring an overlap of sweeps along transect lines and identified metal objects were retrieved.
Each individual findspot was marked on a plan. Finds were individually bagged and the bags marked with the site code and the letter of the transect from which they were found.
Once off-site, artefacts were examined and conservation needs and/or further analysis identified.
Any excavations for the purpose of artefact retrieval were immediately reinstated. No finds of archaeological significance were recovered. |
