Description
Archaeological watching brief of ground disturbance works undertaken in relation to the construction of access roads and service trenches for sewers within Phases 2 and 3 of the housing development at Saltworks Farm.
Only one archaeological feature was identified in the Phase 3 development this being a post-medieval boundary ditch which produced 19th and 20th century ceramic evidence. Also, as part of the Phase 2 development, during the excavation of a service trench, brick and mortar walls on a sandstone footing were recorded. (1)
